If salad dressing had 1/3 of the mixture was oil, 1/6 of the mixture is vinegar, 1/4 of the mixture was orange juice, and 1/4 of the mixture was lemon juice, what are 3 ways to write that so it tastes the same

You could double the amounts and it should taste the same

2/3 2/6 2/4 2/4

simplifies to 2/3 1/3 1/2 1/2

You could triple it, etc.

To write the salad dressing recipe using different ratios that taste the same, you can follow these three approaches:

1. Ratios:
- Oil to vinegar to orange juice to lemon juice: 2:1:1:1
- This means that for every 2 units of oil, you need 1 unit each of vinegar, orange juice, and lemon juice. For example, if you have 2 cups of oil, you would need 1 cup of vinegar, 1 cup of orange juice, and 1 cup of lemon juice.

2. Fractions:
- Oil: 2/6 of the mixture
- Vinegar: 1/6 of the mixture
- Orange juice: 1/6 of the mixture
- Lemon juice: 1/6 of the mixture
- This fraction representation indicates that 2 out of 6 parts of the salad dressing is oil, while the remaining 1/6 is divided equally among vinegar, orange juice, and lemon juice.

3. Percentages:
- Oil: 33.33% of the mixture (approximately)
- Vinegar: 16.67% of the mixture (approximately)
- Orange juice: 16.67% of the mixture (approximately)
- Lemon juice: 16.67% of the mixture (approximately)
- Representing the ratios in percentages allows you to calculate the exact proportions based on the total volume or weight of the salad dressing mixture. For example, if you have 300 grams of salad dressing, you would need approximately 100 grams of oil, and approximately 50 grams each of vinegar, orange juice, and lemon juice.

By using any of these three methods to write the ratios, fractions, or percentages, you can ensure that the salad dressing tastes the same while maintaining the proportions of the original recipe.
