Answer:
- 2/5 cups oats per cup water
- 2.5 cups water per cup oats
Explanation:
The denominator of the fraction is the unit you want 1 of.
(6 cups oats)/(15 cups water) = (6/15) cups oats/(1 cup water)
= (2/5 cups oats)/(1 cup water)
1 cup of water would need 2/5 cups of oats.
__
Obviously, the other ratio is the reciprocal of this.
(1 cup water)/(2/5 cups oats) = (5/2 cups water)/(1 cup oats)
1 cup of oats would need 2.5 cups of water
