Chris mixes 4cups of cereal 3cups of pecans 2 cuos of raisins how can you use ratios to compare quantities of each ingredient and the total amount of snack mix

cereal : pecans : raisins = 2 : 1.5 : 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The amount of cereal in snack mix = 4 cups

The amount of pecans in snack mix = 3 cups

The amount of raisins in snack mix = 2 cups

Therefore,

The total amount of snack = 4 cups + 3 cups + 2 cups = 9 cups

Now,

The ratio is given as:

=

therefore,

Ratio of cereal in snack mix =

and,

Ratio of pecans in snack mix =

Ratio of raisins in snack mix =

Now,

we have ratio as:

4 : 3 : 2

i.e cereal : pecans : raisins

taking 2 common

we get

2 : 1.5 : 1

therefore,

the maximum amount

call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2
