i don't know this either
can someone help me
there An Imposter me I always Put XD at the end Btw XD
sounds like your ratios is:
cranapple:lemonade = 3 1/2 : 2 1/2
= 7/2 : 5/2
= 7 : 5
do the same for the 2nd mix.
To write a ratio that compares the number of parts of lemonade to the total number of parts in each recipe, you need to divide the number of parts of lemonade by the total number of parts.
Let's start with Samantha's Recipe:
Samantha's Recipe has:
- 3 parts of cranapple juice
- 2 parts of lemonade
To calculate the ratio, we divide the number of parts of lemonade (2) by the total number of parts in the recipe (3 + 2 = 5).
Therefore, the ratio for Samantha's Recipe is 2:5.
Now let's move on to Caden's Recipe:
Caden's Recipe has:
- 4 parts of cranapple juice
- 3 parts of lemonade
Again, to calculate the ratio, we divide the number of parts of lemonade (3) by the total number of parts in the recipe (4 + 3 = 7).
Therefore, the ratio for Caden's Recipe is 3:7.
So, the ratios comparing the number of parts of lemonade to the total number of parts are:
- Samantha's Recipe: 2:5
- Caden's Recipe: 3:7
