Francisco uses 12 ounces of milk for every 18 ounces of fruit in his smoothie recipe, Nia uses 8 ounces of milk for every 12 ounces of fruit in her smoothie recipe. Who would use more milk if they each use 6 ounces of fruit?

Answer: there both equal

Step-by-step explanation: first we have to find the unit rate of both. Francisco unit rate for his recipe is 12/18=6/9=2/3 so the unit rate is 2/3

Nia uses 8/12=4/6=2/3 so the both will have the same if they use 6 ounces
