A) To cook 1/2 cup of rice, the package tells you that you also need 1 cup of water. The the total volume of ingredients is
.. 1/2 c + 1 c = 1 1/2 c


b) According to the package the ratio of water to rice is
.. water : rice = 1 : 1/2 = 2 : 1
Then the ratio of water to total ingredients is
.. water : (water + rice) = 2 : (2 +1) = 2 : 3

Susan's ratio is incorrect. Susan is using "1" for the total of ingredients, instead of 2+1 = 3. The correct ratio is 2:3.
