Question

Teresa's bread recipe uses 18 cups of flour and 6 cups of sugar to make some bread. What is the ratio of sugar to flour in lowest terms?

Enter your answer as a fraction in simplest form. For example, if your answer is 4256, which reduces to 34, enter it like this: 3/4

Answer 1

1/3

Explanation:

6 cups Sugar = 6 S

18 cups Flour = 18 F

6/6 = 1 S

18/ 6 = 3 F

original ratio 6S : 18 F

New ratio after reducing 1 S : 3 F
