Answer:

The factory made 3 batches of granola bars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

1/6 barrel of raisins is used in each batch of granola bars.

1/6 barrel = 1 batch

1/2 barrel = x batches

As the relationship is proportional,

1/6 : 1 :: 1/2 : x

Product of mean = Product of extreme

\frac{1}{6}x=\frac{1}{2}

Multiplying both sides by 6

6*\frac{1}{6}x=\frac{1}{2}*6\\x=3

Hence,

The factory made 3 batches of granola bars.
