Amanda is making pastry dough. She mixes 1/3 of a cup of flour and 1/5 of a cup of sugar. If she wants to
mix flour and sugar in the same ratio to make 16 cups of pastry dough, how many cups of flour and
sugar will she need?

please answer quick and answer what to fill out in chart

Flour : sugar = (1/3) : (1/5) = 5 : 3 . . . . . . . . multiply the first ratio by 15 to eliminate fractions

The total of ratio units in the last representation is 5+3=8, so for a recipe of 16 cups, each ratio unit will stand for 16/8 = 2 cups.

Multiplying the ratio by 2 cups, we find Amanda will need

... 10 cups flour : 6 cups sugar

for her recipe.
