OpenStudy (welshfella):
First divide 22.1 by 17
What do you get.p
OpenStudy (kate_kat):
1.3
OpenStudy (welshfella):
Right
Now check if you get 1.3 when you divide numbers in the given choices

try ur second idea 1.4
OpenStudy (justin234):
on the original answers
OpenStudy (kate_kat):
1.4 was A it wouldnt be the answer it has to equal 1.3
OpenStudy (kate_kat):
cuz 17/22.1=1.3
OpenStudy (justin234):
right so it has to 1.3 but it doesnt work ur sayin?

OpenStudy (justin234):
I am not confused too idk what @welshfella thinks but im confused
OpenStudy (kate_kat):
i dont know how but it was C
OpenStudy (kate_kat):
By creating a table of values you can check to see whether each set of values has a multiplicative relationship to the next set.
The ratio of nuts to raisins is 1 to 1.3.
