Answer:

1 3/8 cups of salt

Step-by-step explanation:

1 batch=1/4 cups of salt

1/4•5=5/4

1/2 of 1/4= 1/8

5/4=10/8

10/8+1/8=11/8

1 3/8

Answer:

1 and 3/8 tsp of salt.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the recipe calls for 1/4 tsp. of salt for 1 batch and there are 5 and 1/2 batches the first thing you would need to do is 1/4 x 5 since there is 5 batches. From there you will get 5/4 which you can turn into 1 and 1/4 tsp. However there is still a half of a batch missing from the answer. So you need to figure out how much salt is in a half of a batch. Which is 1/8 since 1 batch normal is 1/4 however it is a half batch so all you really need to do is half 1/4 which comes out to 1/8 from there you need to add 1 and 1/4 + 1/8 tsp. Which you do that by transforming the 1/4 into 2/8 which is 2/8 because 2 fits into 8, 4 times which means it is also equal to 1/4.

From there you just do 1/8 + 2/8 and get 3/8. You then add 1 tsp. of salt and get 1 3/8 tsp. of salt as the answer.
