Sam used 2/3 tablespoons of chili powder to make 1/9

liters of chili. If Sam's recipe is for 1 liter of chili, how much chili powder will he need to make 1/2 the recipe?

A) 3 tablespoons of chili powder

B) 4 tablespoons of chili powder

C) 6 tablespoons of chili powder

D) 9 tablespoons of chili powder

Option A) 3 tablespoons of chili powder

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Sam's recipe is for 1 liter of chili

Sam used 2/3 tablespoons of chili powder to make 1/9 liters of chili

so

Multiply by 9 both quantities to obtain how much tablespoons of chili powder is required for 1 liter of chili

(2/3) 9=6 tablespoons of chili powder are required for 1 liter of chili

To make 1/2 the recipe, multiply 6 tablespoons of chili powder by 1/2

6 (1/2) = 3 tablespoons of chili powder
