If you use two cups of sugar to make a gallon sweet tea how many teaspoons are in twelve ounce glass?

Here's how to solve this problem:

1. Convert Cups to Teaspoons:

* There are 48 teaspoons in 1 cup of sugar.

* You're using 2 cups, so you have 2 cups * 48 teaspoons/cup = 96 teaspoons of sugar in the gallon of tea.

2. Determine the Sugar Ratio:

* A gallon is 128 ounces.

* You have 96 teaspoons of sugar in 128 ounces of tea.

3. Calculate Sugar in 12 Ounces:

* Set up a proportion: (96 teaspoons / 128 ounces) = (x teaspoons / 12 ounces)

* Cross-multiply: 96 * 12 = 128 * x

* Solve for x: 1152 = 128x

* Divide both sides by 128: x = 9 teaspoons

Therefore, a 12-ounce glass of this sweet tea would have approximately 9 teaspoons of sugar.
