Question

Here are three different recipes for Orangy-Pineapple juice. Two of these mixtures taste the same and one tastes different.

Answer 1

Recipes 1 and 2 would taste the same but Recipe 3 would taste different. This is because both Recipe 1 and 2 use a 2:3 ratio, while Recipe 3 uses a 3:4 ratio.

The ratio for Recipe 1 is 4:6 and for Recipe 2 is 6:9, which when simplified is 2:3.

Meanwhile the ratio for Recipe 3 is 9:12, which simplified is 3:4.
