Alan grows tomatoes in his greenhouse. He uses a liquid fertiliser to help increase his yield. The instructions on the fertiliser state, "Dilute 2 capfuls of fertiliser into a watering can containing 5 litres of water". How much fertiliser does he need for 10 litres of water? Also - How much water does he need for 6 capfuls of fertiliser?

4 capfuls of fertilizer

15 liters of water

Step-by-step explanation:

The instructions state that a  fertilizer/water ratio of 2 capfuls: 5 liters should be used.

Following that ratio, the amount of fertilizer required for 10 liters of water is:

The amount needed is 4 capfuls of fertilizer.

The amount of water required for 6 capfuls of fertilizer is:

The amount needed is 15 liters of water.

for ex: the reciprocal of 3/4 is 4/3. it is the opposite.

reciprocal definition:

a mathematical expression or function so related to another that their product is one; the quantity obtained by dividing the number one by a given quantity.

36/60

36/2=18

60/2=30

18/30

18/3=6

30/3=10

6/10

6/2=3

10/2=5

your final answer would be 3/5 of an

hope this !
