Question

In the simplest form of the ratio of all the ingredients in one dish, the amount of tomato will be the LCM of the amount of tomato in the other ratios, 3 : 4 and 2 : 3​

Answer 1

Answer:

Tomatoes

Potatoes

Eggs

If Tomatoes are compared with Potatoes, it is fine.

T:P = 5:3

If Potatoes are compared with Eggs, it is fine.

P:E = 5:7

But the problem begins when we want to compare Tomatoes with Eggs.

Why is that so ?

It is because potatoes = 3 in the first ratio while it is 5 in the second ratio.

How to redeem the situation ?

Make value of potato common in both ratios !!!

How to do it ?

LCM(3,5) = 15

Somehow make potatoes = 15 in each ratio.

=> T:P = 5:3 = 25:15

P:E = 5:7 = 15:21

Ah !!!

I can now compare Tomatoes with Eggs without having to consult Potatoes.

T:P:E = 25:15:21

=> E:T = 21:25
