Tanner Powell · Answer 1

The first thing you should do in this case is to define variables:

birthday cakes = BC = 10

wedding cakes = WC = 3

We now write the relationship between the variables, which can be written in different ways.

Way 1:

BC: WC

10: 3

Way 2:

BC / WC

10/3

Way 3:

BC to WC

10 to 3

Answer:

the values that the ratio of the number of birthday cakes the bakery made to the number of wedding cakes the bakery made are:

10: 3

10/3

10 to 3

Raquel Schmidt · Answer 2

The ratio is 10:3. You also cannot simplify this.
