what is it?
myininaya (myininaya):
figure out what fraction of minced lamb you have given what is required
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i guess i have to add the ingredients 450g + 900g + 75 g
but what i must do with 300ml ?
it has different units
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[\frac{ 1 }{ 450 }=\frac{ x }{ 300 }\]

ow solve for x and you have your porportion
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and the proprtion is the same for the other ingredients right?
myininaya (myininaya):
then you can figure out how much you need of the other ingredients by taking that fraction and multiplying it to the other requirements for each ingredient to figure out what we need of each ingredient given we only have the 300g
myininaya (myininaya):
of minced lamb
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The proportion would be the same for each ingredient

myininaya (myininaya):
fraction you need to multiply to each ingredient is indeed
\[\frac{minced lamb you actually have}{minced lamb you are required }\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
