Question

A dessert has both fruit and yogurt inside
Altogether the mass of the dessert is 185g
the ratio of the fruit mass to the yogurt mass is 2 : 3
what is the mass of the yogurt

Answer 1

Given, the dessert contains both fruit and yogurt which are in the ratio 2:3

We also know that the mass of the dessert is 185g

Taking these values into consideration,

ratio of fruit is 2x

ratio of yogurt is 3x

2x + 3x = 185g

5x = 185

x = 37

So, mass of yogurt is 3(37) = 111g
