Question4 milliliters is how many teaspoons? Hint: 1 mL≈0.21 \mathrm{~mL} \approx 0.2 tsp Round your answer to the nearest tenth. □\square

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

What is this asking? We need to convert a volume from milliliters to teaspoons. Watch out! Don't forget to round to the nearest tenth!

STEP 2

1. Convert milliliters to teaspoons.
2. Round to the nearest tenth.

STEP 3

Alright, let's **start** with what we know: we have **4 milliliters** and we know that **1 milliliter** is *approximately* equal to **0.2 teaspoons**.
We can write that as:
1 mL≈0.2 tsp 1 \mathrm{~mL} \approx 0.2 \mathrm{~tsp}

STEP 4

Now, we want to find out how many teaspoons are in **4 milliliters**.
Since 1 mL is approximately 0.2 tsp, we can **multiply** both sides of our approximation by **4** to find the equivalent in teaspoons.
It's like scaling up our recipe!
4⋅1 mL≈4⋅0.2 tsp 4 \cdot 1 \mathrm{~mL} \approx 4 \cdot 0.2 \mathrm{~tsp}

STEP 5

Let's **calculate** that:
4 mL≈0.8 tsp 4 \mathrm{~mL} \approx 0.8 \mathrm{~tsp} So, **4 milliliters** is *approximately* equal to **0.8 teaspoons**.

STEP 6

Our result, **0.8**, is already expressed to the nearest tenth.
Lucky us!
We don't need to do any extra rounding.
Sometimes, it's as simple as that!

STEP 7

So, 4 milliliters is approximately **0.8 teaspoons**.
