Question

alyssas family is staying at the lake house this weekend for a family reunion. She is in charge of making homemade pancakes for the entire group . The pancakes mix requires 2 cups of flour for every 10 pancakes write a ratio to show the relationship between the number of cups of flour and the number of pancakes made. PLEASE HELP THIS IS DO IN 20 MINUTES

Answer 1

We are told that Alyssa needs 2 cups of flour for every 10 pancakes.

The ratio between cups and pancakes will be as follows:

`\text{ratio}=\frac{\text{cups of flour}}{pancakes}`

Which, is we substitute our values we get:

`\text{ratio}=(2)/(10)`

As you can see, the ratio is a division between the two indicated values.

We can simplify the fraction of the answer if we divide both 2 and 10 by 2:

`\text{ratio}=(2)/(10)=(1)/(5)`

Answer:

the ratio is 1/5 (sometimes represented also as 1:5)
