Gabriel is making a mixture of compost and soil to use for a special plant. he wants his final mix to be 2 parts compost to 6 parts potting soil. he wants to end up with 10 kilograms of mix.

how many kilograms of compost should gabriel use?

5/2 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio here is 2:6.  2 plus 6 is 8.

Then (2/8) times 10 kg represents the amount of compost needed; that comes to 20/8 kg, or 10/4 kg, or 5/2 kg.

step-by-step explanation:

because 1/3 is a fraction. we can tell because there is a divisor symbol between the 1 and the 3. if we were to add 2 fractions together, we would add the numerators, which is the number on top, but not the denominators, which is the number on the bottom

1/3+1/3=2/3

hope this !
