Answer:

6/1

Step-by-step explanation:

So we are looking for a ratio of flour which is 4 and brown sugar which is 2/3.

So we divide 4 by 2/3.

4÷2/3 since we are diving by a fraction we keep 4÷2/3 change 4*2/3 flip 4*3/2. So now we are multiplying 4 and 3/2.

So that is 4/1*3/2= 12/2 that simplies to 6/1

Answer:

⁶/₁

Step-by-step explanation:

4 cups of flour, ⅔ cup of brown sugar.  The ratio of flour to brown sugar is:

4 / ⅔

We need to simplify this.  First, write 4 as a fraction:

⁴/₁ / ⅔

To divide by a fraction, multiply by the reciprocal:

⁴/₁ × ³/₂

¹²/₂

⁶/₁
