Question

A recipe requires 180 g of ingredient A and 60 g of ingredient B. The cook measured ingredient A with a tablespoon 3 times. How many tablespoon(s) of ingredient B is required for the perfect recipe?

• A. 1
• B. 2
• C. 3
• D. 4

Answer 1

The correct option is A 1

Ratio of ingredient A to ingredient B = 180 : 60 = 3 : 1
To make the recipe perfect, for 3 tablespoons of ingredient A, 1 tablespoon of ingredient B should be used to match the ratio 3 : 1 between the two ingredients.
