Nutty Recipe Distance


1. Problem 2: Determine which recipe is more nutty. - Recipe A uses 5 cups of cereal and 2 \frac{1}{2} cups of nuts. - Recipe B uses 3 cups of cereal and 1 cup of nuts. 2. Calculate the nut-to-cereal ratio for each recipe to compare "nutty" levels. - For Recipe A: Nut-to-cereal ratio = \frac{2.5}{5} = 0.5 - For Recipe B: Nut-to-cereal ratio = \frac{1}{3} \approx 0.333 3. Since 0.5 > 0.333, Recipe A has a higher proportion of nuts relative to cereal, so it is more nutty. 4. Problem 4: Calculate the distance Tyrone jogged. - The track length is \frac{3}{5} of a mile. - Tyrone jogged around it twice. 5. Total distance run = 2 \times \frac{3}{5} = \frac{6}{5} = 1.2 miles. Final answers: - Recipe A is more nutty because its nut-to-cereal ratio is higher (0.5 vs. 0.333). - Tyrone ran 1.2 miles.
