A catering company’s recipe for salad uses a ratio of 2 cups of dressing to 12 cups of vegetables. (a) Mrs. Roberts simplified this ratio to 2:6. Explain/show how you know she is incorrect. Can you tell where she might have made a mistake while simplifying?

Solution:

So, A catering company’s recipe for salad uses a ratio of 2 cups of dressing to 12 cups of vegetables.

Ratio of dressing:vegetables=2:12.

Let us divide 2 and 12 by 2

Ratio of dressing: vegetables= \frac{2}{2} : \frac{12}{2}

So, finally we get ratio=1:6 and not 2:6. The mistake is in this step while simplifying.

So, Simplified Ratio of dressing:vegetables=1:6.

Answer:

162 mL  

Step-by-step explanation:

1.Convert all volumes to millilitres

(a) Chlorpheniramine

V = 100 mL

(b) Lidocaine

V = \text{2 fl oz} \times \dfrac{\text{29.57 mL}}{\text{1 fl oz}} = \textbf{59 mL}

(c) Banana flavouring

V = \dfrac{1}{2}\text{ tsp} \times \dfrac{\text{4.928 mL}}{\text{1 tsp}} = \textbf{2.5 mL}

2.Calculate the total volume

Chlorpheniramine =  100  mL

Lidocaine               =   59

Banana flavouring = <u>    2.5  </u>    

TOTAL                    = 162 mL

Rename as a mixed number in simplest form. 15 22/20
Semenov [28]
16 1/10
Because you have 15 and then for 22/20 it is a improper fraction so take 20 away from it to get 2/10 then add 1 to 15 for 16 and then simplify 2/20 to 1/10
