Question

A famous barbecue restaurant in Texas makes 1,000 pounds of barbecue pork each week . The owner has a catering order that requires 100 pounds of barbecue pork . The owner uses 44 pounds of sauce for every 1,000 pounds of barbecue pork . Which equation Shows the amount of sauce needed for the catering order?

Answer 1

First, you can write the original ratio
44:1000

And since 100 is one-tenth of 1,000, you can divide both sides by 10.
Rewrite the ratio as 4.4:100

It said equation, and I don't really know what it means by that, so I'm assuming that it's the ratio.
