4 PARTS TO THIS...SOUNDS CHINESE...HELP!
Chef Alonso is creating a recipe called Spicy Italian Chicken with the following ingredients: 3/4 pound chicken, 2 1/2 cups tomato sauce, 1 teaspoon oregano, and 1/2 teaspoon of his special hot sauce.
a) Chef Alonso wants each serving of the dish to include 1/2 pound of chicken. How many 1/2 pound servings does this recipe make?
b) What is the number Chef Alonso should multiply the amount of chicken by so that the recipe will make 2 full servings, each with 1/2 pound fo chicken?
c) Use the multiplier you found in part 'b' to find the amount of all the ingredients in the new recipe.
d) Chef Alonso only has three measuring spoons: 1 teaspoon, 1/2 teaspoon, and 1/4 teaspoon. Can he measure the new amounts of oregano and hot sauce exactly? Explain why or why not.
--THANK YOU to whomever deciphers this!!

2. (n ×3/2) ×2 n being the original amount the recipe calls for
3. Use the formula to solve
4.yes oregano, no for the hot sauce. Use the formula to show your work
and that's "whoever deciphers this." The phrase acts as the object of the preposition, not just "who".

For B, Chef Alonso should multiply 3/4 by 4/3 to get 2 servings. This is because one serving is 1/2 lb and two servings is 1lb. If you multiply 3/4 to 4/3, you get 12/12 or 1.
( I'll post C and D later )
B) 4 3/4
(Still doing C and D, will come later)
D) Yes, because if he has a 1 teaspoon measuring spoon, he can use that for the oregano, and with the 1/2 teaspoon measuring spoon, he can use that for his hot sauce.
