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 his measuring spoon to have enough coloring to follow the recipe

1 answer

To determine how many times Joslani needs to fill his 1/8 teaspoon measuring spoon to get 5/8 teaspoon of coloring, we can divide 5/8 by 1/8.

\[ \frac{5/8}{1/8} = 5 \]

This means that Joslani needs to fill his 1/8 teaspoon measuring tool 5 times to have enough coloring to follow the recipe.
