Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is  a proportion question.

change 2.6 to a decimal. 2/6 = 1/3 = 0.3333333

change 3/5 to a decimal 3/5 = 0.6

3.3333 / 2.6 = x / 4                 Cross multiply

4*3.33333 = 2.6x                    Combine the left.

13.33333= 2.6x                       Divide by 2.6

13.3333/2.6 = x

x = 5.128 spoons of syrup.
