Question

One recipe for cereal bars uses 5 cups of cereal and 2 cups of nuts. A different recipe uses
3 cups of cereal and 1 cup of nuts. Which recipe is more nutty?

Answer 1

Answer:

The recipe that uses 5 cups of cereals and 2 cups of nut is more nutty.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of nut and cereal in case 1 is:

2:5

The ratio of nut and cereal in case 2 is:

1:3

Since 2:5>1:3, the recipe that uses 5 cups of cereal and 2 cups of nut is more nutty.
