A recipe for trail mix calls for a ratio of 4 to 1 of M&M's to sunflower seeds by weight. How many ounces of sunflower seeds will there be in this mixture if there are 2 pounds of M&M's?​

There will be 4 times the number of M&M's to the number of sunflower seeds according to the ratio.

Using this, we can create a proportion.

[tex]\frac{4}{1}=\frac{2}{x}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

There will be [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] pounds of sunflower seeds needed, or 8 ounces.

Hope this helps.

頑張って!
