Question

if 99 certons of milk was sold and 45 of them were regular flavor what is the ratio of chocolate milk sold to regular milk sold+

Answer 1

well 99 cartons sold, and 45/99 were normal
therefore 99-45 = 54
the ratio is 54:45 if they ask for chocolate to normal
wording of the question is crucial
I'm not sure if you can cancel the ration down to 6:5, you probably can
