Joslani is making slime and the recipe calls for 5/8 teaspoon of coloring. He only has a 1/8 measuring tool available. How many times will he need to fill h/is measuring spoon to have enough coloring to follow the recipe?(1 point)

Answer 1

To find out how many times Joslani needs to fill his measuring spoon, we can divide the required amount of coloring by the capacity of his measuring spoon:

(5/8) ÷ (1/8) = (5/8) × (8/1) = 5.

Therefore, Joslani will need to fill his measuring spoon 5 times to have enough coloring to follow the recipe.
