Question

Salama makes fruit baskets with oranges and bananas. She uses between 8 and 16 oranges and bananas in a ratio of 3 oranges to 2 bananas. Drag the correct number of fruit into the box to meet these requirements.

Answer 1

9 orange

6 bananas

Explanation:

Answer 2

`(6 \ oranges )/(4 \ bananas)` and
`(9 \ oranges)/(6 \ bananas)`

Explanation:

An image is missing here. However, using the given ratio we can find different representations of fruits.

We know that the ratio between oranges and bananas is

`(3 \ oranges)/(2 \ bananas)`

So, if she uses between 8 and 16 oranges and bananas, we can only use ratios that fall between this numbers.

Some ratios that represent this situation are

`(6 \ oranges )/(4 \ bananas)` using 10 oranges and bananas.

`(9 \ oranges)/(6 \ bananas)` using 15 ranges and bananas.

This two ratios are the ones that can be used, because other ratios don't fall between the interval (8,16).

Therefore, the valid ratios here are

`(6 \ oranges )/(4 \ bananas)` and
`(9 \ oranges)/(6 \ bananas)`
