Question

The ratio of saturated fat to total fat in a caramel frappucino is 2 to 3. There are 4 more grams of total fat than saturated

fat. How much total fat is there in a caramel Frappuccino?

Answer 1

So we are given that the ratio of saturated fat to total fat is 2:3. And now there are 4 more grams of total fat than saturated fat.
The number is fairly small so let’s do this a simple way I came up myself.
So let’s start from 2/3 and work our way up until the denominator is 4 more than the numerator.
2/3, 4/6, 8/12. Stop. 12-8=4.
There it is.
The total fat in a caramel Frappuccino is 12 grams.
