Answer 2

Ronald

Explanation:

RONALD:

Cups of sugar = 2

Cups of flour = 5

Cups of sugar / cup of flour mixed = 2/5 = 0.4 per cup

MADELYN :

Cups of sugar = 6

Cups of flour = 16

Amount of sugar per cup of flour :

Cups of sugar / cup of flour mixed = 6/16 = 0.375 per cup

RONALD'S cake is sweeter, it has greater amount of sugar per cup than madelyn's
