Question

on every three hamburgers that McDonald's makes they use 9 pickles write a ratio in the simplest form how many pickles will they use on a hundred burgers

Answer 1

Ratio defined as the relative sizes of two or more values.

i.,e
`(a)/(b) = a:b`

As per the statement:

on every three hamburgers that McDonald's makes they use 9 pickles.

Unit rate per burger =
`\frac{\text{Number of pickles}}{\text{Number of burger}} = (9)/(3) = (3)/(1)`

Then the ratio in the simplest form is: 3 : 1

We have to find how much will they use on a 100 burgers.

By definition of unit rate:

`\text{Number of pickles} = \text{Unit rate per burger} * 100`

then;

`\text{Number of pickles} =3 * 100` = 300

Therefore, 300 pickles will they use on a hundred burgers.
