Answer:
1000: 269 : 47
Step-by-step explanation:
A ratio is a way of comparing the value or amount of one quantity to another.
We have to find the ratio of the water to sucrose to saline solution, hence, it must remain in that order
Water : sucrose : saline solution
The amount of water in 1 litre (1000 ml)
The amount of sucrose is 269ml
The amount of saline solution is 47 ml
Therefore the ratio of water to sucrose to saline solution is
1000 : 269 : 47
