    Answer:

    6 teaspoons of baking powder

    Explanation:

    This is a simple ratio question.

    Every 1/3 of a teaspoon of salt requires 2 teaspoons of baking powder.

    Therefore, 1 teaspoon of salt will require:

                                   =  1 x 2/1/3

                                        = 2 x 3 = 6 teaspoons of baking powder

    Hence, 6 teaspoons of baking powder would be needed if they had used 1 teaspoon of salt.

    Answer:

    6 teaspoons of baking powder required.

    Explanation:

    Given that

    According to the recipe of pancake,

    For every \frac{1}{3} teaspoon of salt, 2 teaspoons of baking baking powder is required.

    To find:

    How much baking powder will be needed, if 1 teaspoon of salt was used ?

    Solution:

    This problem can be solved using ratio.

    \frac{1}3 teaspoon of salt : 2 teaspoons of baking powder

    Let us multiply the above ratio with 3.

    \frac{1}{3}\times 3 teaspoon of salt : 2 \times 3 teaspoons of baking powder

    OR

    1 teaspoon of salt : 6 teaspoons of baking powder

    So, answer is 6 teaspoons of baking powder required.

    Also, we can use the unitary method:

    \frac{1}3 teaspoon of salt needs =  2 teaspoons of baking powder

    1  teaspoon of salt needs =  \frac{2}{\frac{1}3} teaspoons of baking powder

    1  teaspoon of salt needs = 2 \times 3 = 6  teaspoons of baking powder needed

    So, the answer is:

    6 teaspoons of baking powder required.
