A soup that serves 16 people calls for 2 cans of chopped clams, 4 cups of chicken broth, 6 cups of milk, and 4 cups of cubed potatoes. Create a ratio table for this situation

If we put this in a ratio, it will be:
16:2:4:6:4 (People:Clams:Chicken broth:Milk:Potatoes)
We have to simply the ratio.
8:1:2:3:2

Answer:

People Served 16 24 32

Chopped Clams (cans) 2 3 4

Chicken Broth (cups) 4 6 8

Milk (cups) 6 9 12

Cubed Potatoes (cups) 4 6 8

We can evaluate like :

For 24 people, the ratio will be 2:3

Like 16:24 is 2: 3

4:6 is 2:3

and so on.

And for 32 people, we will multiply all the ingredients by 2 because
16*2=32
