Debnil have 2 tablespoons to salt.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Number of teaspoons of salt = 6

Ratio of teaspoons to tablespoons = 3:1

x be the number of tablespoon of salt for 6 teaspoons.

Ratio of teaspoons to tablespoons = 6:x

Using proportion

$6*1=3*x\\6=3x\\3x=6$

Dividing both sides by 3

$\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{6}{3}\\x=2$
