Answer:
2 to 8
3 to 12
4 to 16
Explanation:
Ratio of cups of water to cups of milk = 1 to 4 = 1 : 4
Thus, three equivalent ratios of the situation described above will be:
✔️Since 1 cup of water is to 4 cups of milk (¼) therefore:
2 cups of water will require x cups of milk (²/x)
Thus:
¼ = ²/x
Cross multiply
x = 4*2
x = 8
Equivalent ratio: 2 to 8
✔️Since 1 cup of water is to 4 cups of milk (¼) therefore:
3 cups of water will require x cups of milk (³/x)
Thus:
¼ = ³/x
Cross multiply
x = 4*3
x = 12
Equivalent ratio: 3 to 12
✔️Since 1 cup of water is to 4 cups of milk (¼) therefore:
4 cups of water will require x cups of milk (⁴/x)
Thus:
¼ = ⁴/x
Cross multiply
x = 4*4
x = 16
Equivalent ratio: 4 to 12
