Question

In a recipe making every 1 and 1/2 cup of rice requires 2 and
3/4 cups of water.Express this in the ratio of rice to water​

Answer 1

Answer:ans is 6: 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given rice=1+1/2=3/2

Water 2+3/4=11/4

Ratio=rice/water=(3/2)/(11/4)=(3/2)*(4/11)

On solving, we get

Ratio=6/11=6: 11

Answer 2

Answer:

6:11

Step-by-step explanation:

In a recipe every 1 and ½ cup of rice requires 2 and ¾ cup of water.

So, 1 and ½ cup of rice is equal to 1+1/2

                         = (2+1)/2

                          =3/2  

Also, 2 and ¾ cup is equal to 2+3/4

                     = (8+3)/4

                     =11/4  

Now according to the given problem,

Ratio of Rice to Water will be = 3/2: 11/4

   On solving this we get,

                        3/2 * 4/11

                        = 6/11

                        =6:11

And hence the ratio of rice and water will be 6:11.
