divide the 5 by 1000 to get the fraction needed to make the 5 instead of the 1000. That gives you 1/200th of a pound to make 5 gallons.

1/1000 = x/5
solve for x x = 5/1000 = .005 lbs

5 gallons = 1000/200 gallons
Therefor, you need 1/200lb of yeast
1/200 = 0.005lbs (a very tiny amount)
Multiply by 454 (grams per pound) = 2.27 grams of yeast

it works out to be .008 oz. a packet of yeast is a million/4 ounce or .25 ouncesit incredibly is approx 2 a million/2 tsp. .008 ouncesis a pair of million/30 of .25 oz. a million/30 of two.5 tsp is .08 tsp or a pair of million/10 of a tsp. no longer very lots of yeast.

1/1000 = x/5
cross multiply and you get
1000x = 5
divide by 1000 on both sides
x = .005 lbs

5 gallons is 0.5% of 1000 gallons.
So you would need 0.5% as much yeast, which is (0.005)*(16 oz) = 0.08 oz.
