Nell's mom: 30 mL for 2 ounces = 15 mL for 1 ounce

Nell's dad: 65 mL for 5 ounces = 13 mL for 1 ounce

15 > 13
Therefore, Nell's mom's chocolate milk is more chocolately.

Answer:

(A) Nell's mom

Explanation:

It is given that Nell's mom makes chocolate milk with 30mL of chocolate syrup for every 2 ounces of milk.

⇒For 1 ounce of milk, she will make chocolate milk=
(30)/(2)=15mL

Also, it is given that Nell's dad adds 65mL of chocolate syrup for every 5 ounces of milk.

⇒For 1 ounce of milk, he will make chocolate milk=
(65)/(5)=13mL

Since, Nell's mom made 15mL of chocolate milk and his dad made 13mL of chocolate milk, thus Nell's mom made chocolate milk more chocolatey.

Hence, option A is correct.
