Ingredient C: 1/4 cup for 2/3 serving
Ingredient D: 1/3 cup for 3/4 serving
*how much cups for one serving

Answer 1

C) 1/2 a cup for one serving, also the smaller one.
D) i dont know this one, but the answers for C are for sure correct

Answer 2

Answer: Ingredient C is lower.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Ingredient C: 1/4 cup for 2/3 serving

For
`(2)/(3)` serving, number of cup =
`(1)/(4)`

So, for 1 serving, the number of cups would be

`(1)/(4)/ (2)/(3)\\\\=(1)/(4)* (3)/(2)\\\\=(3)/(8)`

Ingredient D: 1/3 cup for 3/4 serving

For
`(3)/(4)` serving, number of cups =
`(1)/(3)`

So, for 1 serving, the number of cups would be

`(1)/(3)/ (3)/(4)\\\\=(1)/(3)* (4)/(3)\\\\=(4)/(9)`

So, on comparison,
`(3)/(8)<(4)/(9)`

we get that Ingredient C is lower.
