Tony's recipe for soup calls for a 1 and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.He wants to use one half that amount. how much salt will he use?

Respuesta :

half of 1/4 is 1/8
and half of 1 is 1/2 or 4/8 (which reduces to 1/2)
add 1/8 and 4/8 together to get
5/8 of a teaspoon of salt
If an option is 5/8 then it is that or 0.625
