Ratios can be used to convert units of measurement since you can set up a proportion to convert a measurement to another unit. An example would be converting 14 pints to quarts, which can be solved using your knowledge that 1 quart is equal to 2 pints. If it were to be set up as a proportion, it would look like this: 2/1=14/x
If it were to be represented by a ratio, the ratio of pints to quarts would be represented like this: 2:1, which can be used to help convert 14 pints to quarts.

Answer:

$\frac{19}{12}\ pounds$

$1\frac{7}{12}\ pounds$

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct question is

A landscaper needs 3 4/8 pounds of plant food. He has 1 1/4 pounds in his truck, and another 4/6 pound at his shop. How many more pounds of plant food does the landscaper need?

Let

x ----> the additional pounds of plant food needed for the landscaper

we know that

The additional pounds of plant food needed for the landscaper plus the pounds in his truck plus the pounds in his shop must be equal to the total pounds of plant food needed

The linear equation that represent this problem is

$x+1\frac{1}{4}+\frac{4}{6}=3\frac{4}{8}$
