lemonade ratios
which sample goes to each recipie
strongest taste
weakest taste
Sample A
Miss Kerby's recipie would match A because 1 is closest o 3 compared to 1 and thirty or 1 and 16.
p to p : 1 lemon over 3 water
p to w : 3 water to 4 total parts
Sample B
Sample B most likley matches Miss Pope's recipie because 1 to 30 is the smallest fraction in the three recipies.
p to p : 30 water to 1 lemon
p to w : 1 lemon to 31 parts total
Sample C
This sample most closley matches Miss Meyer's recipie because 1 over 16 (most lemon taste) is in the middle of 1 over 3 and 1 over 30 (lesast lemon taste).
p to p : 1 lemon to 16 water
p to w : 16 water to 17 total parts
evidence
A part to part ratio would show you if there is more lemonade mix ormore water. A part to whole ratio shows you how closesomething is to the total numbers.
If you thought that sample A had a lot more water parts than lemon you were correct 90 (water) is very faraway from 3 (lemonade mix).
