Staff at a fast food restaurant make up the cleaning solution in their spray bottles from a concentrate. In each 300mL bottle they pour 50mL of concentrate and fill the bottle the rest of the way with water. What is the ratio of concentrate to water used?

Respuesta :

Answer:

1 : 5

Step-by-step explanation:

So 50mL is for thye concentrate then the rest is water which means the water is 300mL - 50mL = 250mL of water.

Ratio of concrentrate to water = 50mL: 250mL

To write a ratio you first write down the one stated first then the other one.

50mL : 250mL CAN BE SIMPLIFIED. This is done by dividing both parts by the highest common factor which is 50.

It then becomes 1 : 5.
