Question

A restaurant makes vegetable soup using 22 cups of mixed vegetables and 15 cups of stock. Henri tries to make this at home with 5 cups of Mixed vegetables and 10 cups of stock. Is Henri using the correct ratio? Explain

Answer 1

He is doing it wrong because the restaurant uses 22 cups mixed veggies and 15 cups stock. 5 cups of mixed veggies is equal to ( (5/22) × 15 ), which is ~ 3.4 cups of stock and not 10.
The ratio should be 22: 15
or in terms of the question ~7.3 : 5
