Pam’s ratio is 2 cups club soda to 5 cups juice. Barry is making punch with 3 cups club soda to 8 cups juice. Erin is also making punch with 4 cups of club soda to 10 cups of juice. Whose ratio is the same as Pam’s?

Answer:

The answer is Erin 4 cups of soda and 10 cups of juice

Explanation:

First you simplify everyone's ratio.

Pam= 2:5

Barry= 3:8

Erin= 4:10 = 2:5

Finally, you find out who has the same ratio as

Pam which is Erin

Pam= 2:5

Erin= 2:5

So, Therefore the answer is Erin.

Pam's ratio = 2:5
Barry's ratio= 3:8
Erin's ratio = 4:10 = 2:5 [By simplification]
Therefore, Erin's ratio is similar to Pam's.
