Question

The recipe for lemonade calls for 2 cups of lemon juice and 5 cups of water.

Which of the following ratios is equivalent to the ratio of lemon juice to water?
(A)12:30
(B)10:4
(C)14:42
(D)2:7

Answer 1

It would be A)12:30

Explanation:

This is because if you look at five and the end of each one you can not get 4, 42, or 7 with 5 so that means it has to be the first one it is also because if you take 2 and 5 times them both by 6 you get 12 and 30.

So the answer would be 12:30.
