Find the number that makes the ratio equivalent to 2:6.

8:

A ratio is used to describe how two or more quantities are related. For example, we might say that a fruit drink calls for sugar crystals to be mixed with water in a ratio of 2:6. This means that for every 2 scoops sugar crystals, there will need to be 6 ounces of water. If there were 200 scoops of sugar crystals, there would need to be 600 ounces of water.
