I NEED HELP ASAP!!!!! In one version of a trail mix, there are 3 cups of peanuts mixed with 2 cups of raisins. In another version of trail mix, there are 4.5 cups of peanuts mixed with 3 cups of raisins. Are the ratios equivalent for the two mixes? Explain your reasoning.

so so to start you're going to want to find the lowest common factor of 3 cups peanuts and 4.5 cups of peanuts. and then you're going to want to multiply both to get to the lowest common factor. then you end up with 9 cups peanuts to 6 cups of raisins for the first ratio. for the second one you end up with the same ratio of 9 cups peanuts and 6 cups of raisins.

so both mixes are the same .
