Cindy dissolves 19 1 /4 grams of drink mix in 1 3 /4 ounces of water. What is the unit rate in grams of drink mix per ounce of water?

Answer 1

11 grams of drink mix per ounce of water

Explanation:

I converted both numbers to decimals to get 19.25 and 1.75, then divided the amount of drink mix by the amount of water.

Answer 2

11 gm mix : 1 ounce water

Explanation:

We find 1/7 of 19.75gm = 2.75

Then we multiply by 4 = 11

We have found our ounce rate to be 11 gm : 1 ounce water
