olasank [31]

Answer:

B) 4 tablespoons of salt

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the correct question: Scott used 1/3 tablespoons of salt to make 1/4 liters of beans. If Scott's recipe is for 1 liter of beans, how much salt will he need to make triple the recipe?

Given is the ratio of salt and beans to make recipe for 1 liter of beans.

Ratio given for 1 liters of beans; $\frac{salt}{beans} = \frac{\frac{1}{3} }{\frac{1}{4} }$ .

Now, simplifying the ratio

$\frac{\frac{1}{3} }{\frac{1}{4} }= \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{4}{1}$

∴ Ratio for salt and bean in a recipe for 1 liter of beans is $\frac{4}{3}$ .

Next, finding the proportion of salt to make triple the recipe.

Triple the recipe means 3 times of 1 liter of beans, which is 3 liters of beans.

∴ The proportion of salt in 3 liter beans= $\frac{4\ tablespoon\ salt}{3\ tablespoon\ beans} \times 3\ lts\ of\ beans$

Hence, 4 tablespoon of salt is required to make 3 liters of beans or triple the recipe.
