Question

A recipe calls for 2 cups of sugar, 2 eggs, 3 cups of flour, and 5 cups of milk. What is the ratio of sugar to flour?

Answer 1

2 cups of sugar:3 cups of flour

Explanation:

Because there are 2 cups of sugar and 3 cups of flour used, you can represent this with a ratio - 2 cups sugar:3 cups flour.

Because 2:3 cannot be reduced (it is in its simplest form), this is the final answer.
