(3 1/2) / (4 3/4)   =     (7/2) / (19/4)   =  7/2  x  4/19  =  28 / 38  = 14/19

A recipe calls for 3 ½ cups of flour and 4 ¾ cups of sugar. Write a ratio of flour to sugar as a simplified fraction.

 

\(3\frac{1}{4}M:4\frac{3}{4}Z=1:x\)

 

\(\Large x=\frac{4\frac{3}{4}Z}{3\frac{1}{2}M}=\frac{19*2Z}{4*7M}=\frac{19Z}{14M}\)

 

\(For \ the \ recipe \ they \ need \ a \ volume \ ratio \)

\(Flour: sugar = 14:19\)
