Step-by-step explanation:
We can answer by finding the ratio of nuts to cereal. The one that has the higher ratio of nuts to cereal is the nuttier one.
Recipe 1: 2 1/2 cups of nut per 5 cups of cereal.
nuts to cereal ratio = 2 1/2 : 5 = 1 : 2
Recipe 2: 1 cups of nuts per 3 cups of cereal.
nuts to cereal ratio = 1 : 3
1 : 2 is a higher ratio than 1 : 3
