Answer:
- <u><em>The ratio of the number of flour tortillas to the total number of tortillas is: 6:10, which is equivalent to 3:5.</em></u>
<u><em></em></u>
Explanation:
First, let's make clear that the correct wording is that the ratio of the number of corn tortillas to the number of flour tortillas is 4:6.
From that, you must determine the ratio of the number of flour tortillas to the total number of tortillas.
You can do it with the help of a chart that you can build from the ratio of the number of corn tortillas to to the number of flour tortillas:
# Corn tortillas # Flour tortillas #Total tortillas
4 6 10
Now, the ratio of the number of flour tortillas to the number of total tortillas is:
- Ratio of the numberr of flour tortillas to the total number of tortillas, r:
r = # flour tortillas / # total tortillas = 6:10
That ratio may be simplified by dividing by the greatest common divisor of 6 and 10, which is 2:
