16. Explain how you know.
Your answer

Answer 1

Ratio of peanuts to raisins in the first version of a trail mix = 3:2.

Ratio of peanuts to raisins in the second version of a trail mix = 4.5:3.

Divide the ratio by 1.5.

Ratio for second mix = 3:2.

The ratios are equivalent for the two mixtures.

Hopefully this helped.
