Hey!

-------------------------------------------------

Solution:

We need to find the proportion.

To find the proportion we need to divide the "Ounces of Tomatoes" to "Ounces of Spaghetti".

16 / 12 = 1.333333... or 1 1/3

8 / 6 = 1.333333... or 1 1/3

We can use copy dot flip to find the rest of the missing values.

3/1 * 4/3 = 12/3 = 4

2/1 * 4/3 = 8/3 = 2 2/3

1/1 * 4/3 = 4/3 = 1 1/3

-------------------------------------------------

Answer:

12 → 16

6 → 8

3 → 4

2 → 2 2/3

1 → 1 1/3

-------------------------------------------------

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!
