Answer:

2\frac{38}{125}\ teaspoons

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

There are about 125,000 Brine shrimp in 1 pound

1 pound contains 96 teaspoons

so

There are about 125,000 Brine shrimp in 96 teaspoons

Using proportion

Find out how many teaspoons of brine shrimp represent 3000 Brine shrimp

Let

x -----> the number of teaspoons

\frac{96}{125,000}=\frac{x}{3,000}\\\\x=3,000(96)/125,000\\\\x=\frac{288,000}{125,000}\ teaspoons

Simplify

\frac{288}{125}\ teaspoons

Convert to mixed number

\frac{288}{125}\ teaspoons=\frac{250}{125}+\frac{38}{125}=2\frac{38}{125}\ teaspoons
