Question

Jennifer family loves to drink iced tea mixed with lemonade in the summer. Yesterday Jennifer mixed 4 ounces of lemonade and 8 ounce of iced tea in a tall glass for herself. then she made another pitcher to share with 8 ounces of lemonade and 24 ounces of iced tea. Did the glass and the pitcher have the same ratio of lemonade to iced tea Yes or no

Answer 1

Write both ratios as fraction and simplify them to check if they are equivalent.

4 ounces of lemonade : 8 ounces of iced tea

`(4)/(8)=(1)/(2)`

8 ounces of lemonade : 24 ounces of iced tea

`(8)/(24)=(1)/(3)`

Since 1/2 is not equal to 1/3, the ratio is NOT the same.

Therefore, the answer is:

`No`
