Question

The recipe calls for 3 cups of ketchup for every 1/2 cups of mustard.

Answer 1

Answer:

6 ketchup / 1 mustard

Step-by-step explanation:

3 ketchup = 0.5 mustard

6 ketchup per 1 mustard

Answer 2

Answer:

6:1

Step-by-step explanation:

For every 3 cups of ketchup, you need 1/2 cup of mustard, and since the ratio is asking you for a ratio in cups, you need to multiply both 3 and 1/2 by 2, so you can get the 1/2 to a full cup, giving you the ratio of 6 cups of ketchup to 1 cup of mustard.
