Salt water gargle can temporarily relieve a sore throat. One recipe calls for 3/4 teaspoon of salt in 1 cup of water. A second recipe calls for 1 2/3 teaspoon of salt in 2 cups of water. Which recipe will
taste saitier? Explain.

Answer 1

Answer:

I believe the one with 2 cups of water will be saltier

Explanation:

When you change the fractions to a common denominator, which is 12, you see the recipe with 1 cup should be half of the recipe with 2 cups. But the one with 2 cups is more than double the recipe with 1 cup.
