“Equally likely outcomes in probability.
In some sample spaces, it is reasonable to estimate or assume that all outcomes in the space are equally likely (that they occur with equal probability). For example, when tossing an ordinary coin, one typically assumes that the outcomes "head" and "tail" are equally likely to occur.”

Answer is 1.2 pints fertilizer
Step by step
First I’m going to change 2 quarts to 4 pints because we are going for a smaller portion of water to fertilizer
Next you find your rate
50 gal water to 4 pints fertilizer = 12.5 rate
We want to solve for x, 15 gallons water to x fertilizer
50/2 to 15/x
Substitute your rate for x and divide
15/12.5 = 1.2 pints
