B. Nina buys a variety of cereal bars. The box contains 5 blueberry bars, 3 strawberry bars, and

2 apple bars. Write the ratio that represents each relationship in words, in colon form, and in

fractional form.

1. strawberry bars to blueberry bars

2. apple bars to blueberry bars

3. strawberry bars to total bars

4. apple bars to total bars

5. blueberry bars to total bars

6. apple bars to strawberry bars

The requested ratios in words, colon form, and fraction form are:

1. strawberry bars to blueberry bars = 3 : 5 = 3/5

2. apple bars to blueberry bars = 2 : 5 = 2/5

3. strawberry bars to total bars = 3 : 10 = 3/10

4. apple bars to total bars = 2 : 10 = 2/10 = 1/5

5. blueberry bars to total bars = 5 : 10 = 5/10 = 1/2

6. apple bars to strawberry bars = 2 : 3 = 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by doing an inventory of what Nina has:

Apple bars = 2

Blueberry bars = 5

Strawberry bars = 3

Total bars = 10

The requested ratios then are:

1. strawberry bars to blueberry bars = 3 : 5 = 3/5

2. apple bars to blueberry bars = 2 : 5 = 2/5

3. strawberry bars to total bars = 3 : 10 = 3/10

4. apple bars to total bars = 2 : 10 = 2/10 = 1/5

5. blueberry bars to total bars = 5 : 10 = 5/10 = 1/2

6. apple bars to strawberry bars = 2 : 3 = 2/3
