Respuesta :

Answer:

He should use 1/2 of a teaspoon of pepper.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, the soup recipe requires 1/4 of a teaspoon of pepper for every 1/2 of a teaspoon of dried basil.

Now, to determine how much pepper Terrell should use if he uses 1 teaspoon of dried basil for the huge pot of soup,

Let the quantity be x

If 1/4 of a teaspoon of pepper requires 1/2 of a teaspoon of dried basil,

then, x teaspoon of pepper will require 1 teaspoon of dried basil

x = (1/4 × 1) ÷ (1/2)

x = 1/4 ÷ 1/2

x = 1/4 × 2/1

x = 2/4

x = 1/2

∴ 1/2 of a teaspoon of pepper is required for 1 teaspoon of dried basil.

Hence, he should use 1/2 of a teaspoon of pepper.
