answer:
Sharon used more milk because 3 cups equal 1.5 (one and a half) pints.
Detailed answer:
1 cup equals 0.5 pints or half of a pint. So if you take 0.5 and multiply it by 3 you get 1.5 and that is the amount of pints that Sharon uses but Sue uses 1 pint or 2 cups. so 1.5 pints is grater than 1 pint by 0.5
(sorry if this was not so clear i am not that good at explaining things, also i hope this helps and you get a good score on whatever you are doing.)
You know that the ratio of J&S to F&So is 2:3. You need two numbers that have that same ratio to total 60 players. When you multiply both numbers by 12, you have a ratio of 2:3 but the number of players is 24 to 36. Thus, the total players is 60. When looking at the ratio of Juniors to Seniors, the ratio remains 1:2, but must total 24 players. Dividing the total players by 3, you can find where 1 part of the players equals 2 parts of the others. Keeping that same ratio in mind, you are able to calculate that the ratio of Juniors to Seniors is 8:16 but when reduced, still remains a 1:2 ratio.
It would be an A if i'm correct.
They gave you an eqution with variables and then they gave you numbers that all you have to do is put in
k(h-j)+h
5(5-4)+5
5(1)+5
5+5
10
