Mexico is producing 40 tons of hamburgers and 50 tons of tacos.
Mexico's opportunity cost of producing a ton of hamburgers
= 
= 1.25
Mexico's opportunity cost of producing a ton of tacos

Since US specializes in making hamburgers, it will produce 200 tons of hamburgers and 0 tons of tacos.
Mexico specializes in making tacos, it will produce 50 tons of tacos and 0 tons of hamburgers.
