A recipe calls for 2 tsp of salt, 1 tsp of pepper, and 4 tsp of garlic powder. How much pepper and garlic powder would you need for a larger batch if you are using 15 tsp of salt?

amount of pepper required = 7.5 tsp

amount of garlic powder required = 30 tsp

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

amount of salt used for small batch of the recipe = 2 tsp

amount of pepper used for small batch of the recipe = 1 tsp

amount of garlic powder used for small batch of the recipe = 4 tsp

amount of salt used for the larger batch = 15 tsp

= 2 x 7.5 tsp

= amount of salt used for small batch the recipe x 7.5

So,

the amount of pepper needed for the larger batch = 7.5 x amount of pepper used for the small batch of recipe

= 7.5 x 1 tsp

= 7.5 tsp

the amount of garlic powder needed for the larger batch = 7.5 x amount of garlic powder used for the small batch of recipe

= 7.5 x 4 tsp

= 30 tsp
