Nick is making bread dough the recipe requires 3/4 cup of flour and 1 1/8 teaspoon of salt. nick wants to make the recipe using 1 cup of flour to maintain the ratio, how muck salt is required when 1 cup of flour is used

Hi there!

In order to answer your question, you'll need to use the cross product method:

3/4 cup flour → 1 1/8 teaspoon salt

1 cup flour     → X salt

To make it easier to calculate, you can transform the fractions into decimals:

0.75 cup flour → 1.125 teaspoon salt

1 cup flour       → X salt

(1.125 × 1) ÷ 0.75 = X salt

1.125 ÷ 0.75 = X salt

1.5 = X salt

If you want your answer to be in a fraction since the whole problem is given in fractions :

1.5 = 1 + 0.5 = 1 + 1/2 = 1 1/2

Your answer is: To maintain the ratio, when 1 cup of flour is used, 1.5 teaspoons of salt are required. OR 1 1/2 teaspoons are required. OR 1 and a half teaspoons are required.

There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)
