A recipe is made using cheese and butter in the ratio 4 : 3. If Arohi uses 8 bowls of cheese, how many bowls of butter should she use?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 6.
Butter Bowls = (Bowls of cheese × Butter ratio) / Cheese ratio
Cheese ratio = 4
Butter ratio = 3
Bowls of cheese used = 8
Butter Bowls = (8 × 3) / 4
⇒ Butter Bowls = 24 / 4
⇒ Butter Bowls = 6
