Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is A. It's too garlicky

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this take not Emily believes 8 cloves in every 500ml of sauce is perfect. Now take note raphael's sauce is 12 cloves for every 900 ml.

First divide 500 by 8

500/8= 62.5

So Emily believes every 62.5 ML needs a clove of garlic.

Now divide 900 by 12

900/12=75

Raphael's sauce has one clove of garlic for every 75 ml.
