Question

Mr. Demers is making a drink by adding flavor drops to his water. If he puts 3 drops in a 12 ounce glass of water, how many ounces does he use PER DROP?

Answer 1

Answer: 4 ounces per drop

=======================================================

Explanation:

"Per drop" means "per 1 drop" or "for each 1 drop".

We start off with the ratio of

3 drops: 12 ounces

Divide both parts of that ratio by 3 so that "3 drops" turns into "1 drop"

Doing so gets us the new ratio of

1 drop: 4 ounces

So he uses 4 ounces per drop.
