Question

A recipe for orange water says "Mix 3 teaspoons yellow water with 1 teaspoon red water" for this recipe,we might say"the ratio of teaspoons of yellow water to teaspoons of red water is 3:1Write a ratio for 3 batches of this recipe then explain how you know it will taste the samePlease help me out

Answer 1

For one batch of the recipe:

Mix 3 teaspoons yellow water with 1 teaspoon red water

So, the ratio of teaspoons of yellow water to teaspoons of red water is 3:1

Now, we need 3 batches

so, the ratio will be

`3\cdot(3\colon1)=9\colon3`

so, we need to mix 9 teaspoons yellow water with 3 teaspoon red water

The taste will be the same because the ratio 9 : 3 = 3 : 1

As the ratio is the same, the taste will be the same
