Respuesta :
First version ratio peanuts to raisons = 3/2 = 1.5
For the second version it is 4.5 / 3 = 1.5 also
So the ratios are equivalent
Answer:
The ratios are equivalent
Step-by-step explanation:
there are 3 cups of peanuts mixed with 2 cups of raisins
Lets write the ratio of peanuts and raisins
Ratio of peanuts over raisins is [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]
in another version of the trail mix there are 4.5 cups of peanuts and 3 cups of raisins
Ratio of peanuts over raisins is [tex]\frac{4.5}{3}[/tex]
Lets reduce the fraction. Divide top and bottom by 1.5
[tex]\frac{4.5}{3}[/tex] becomes [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]
The ratios of two mixes are [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]
So the ratios are equal
