Question

Ingrid collected 6 cans of food and 18 boxes of food for the food bank. Which describes the relationship between cans of food and boxes of food?

Answer 1

The relationship between the cans of food and boxes of food that Ingrid collected can be determined by the mathematical equations involving addition/subtraction and multiplication/division.

 For addition/subtraction:

   D = x – y

Where D is difference, x is the number of cans of food, and y is the boxes. Substituting the known values,

    D = 6 – 8 = -2

 For multiplication/division:

   R = x/y

Where R is the ratio. Substituting the known values,

   R = 6/8 = ¾ = 0.75
