Question

When Arjun makes hot cocoa, he adds 20ml of chocolate syrup for every 3 ounces of hot water. Arjun's brother, Eli, adds 45mL of chocolate syrup for every 6 ounces of hot water.
Which hot cocoa is more chocolatey?.

Answer 1

Answer:

Eli

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the most chocolately, analyze the unit rate per 1 ounce. The unit rate with more chocolate in ml per 1 ounce will be more chocolately.

To find the unit rate, create a fraction of syrup over hot water.

Arjun - $\frac{20ml}{3}= 6.67$ ml per 1 ounce

Eli - $\frac{45ml}{6} = 7.5$ ml per 1 ounce

Eli's is greater and therefore more chocolately.
