Question

To feed his plants, Logan creates a mixture that requires 3/8 cup of plant food for every gallon of water.If he uses 10 1/2 gallons of water, what is the total amount of plant food he needs?

Answer 1

`\text { 1 gallon of water = } (3)/(8) \text { cup of plant food}`


`10 (1)/(2) \text { gallons of water = } (3)/(8) * 10(1)/(2)`


`10 (1)/(2) \text { gallons of water = } (3)/(8) * (21)/(2)`


`10 (1)/(2) \text { gallons of water = } 3(15)/(16) \text { cups of plant food}`
