Question

Melissa used 4 cups of sugar to bake 54 cookies. If she’s only used 1 cup of sugar, what would be an equivalent ratio of cups to cookies

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{2}{27}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given  that melissa used 4 cups of sugar to bake 54 cookies.

That means 1 cup of sugar will be used to bake $\frac{54}{4}=\frac{27}{2}$ by unitary method

We have to find the ratio of cups to the cookies

We are using 1 cup of sugar

And cookies will be $\frac{27}{2}$

$\text{equivalent ratio}=\frac{1}{\frac{27}{2}}=\frac{2}{27}$
