What are ratio and proportion?
A ratio is a group of sequentially ordered numbers a and b expressed as a/b, where b is never equal to zero. When two objects are equal, a statement is said to be proportional.
Serena makes 2 1/4 cups of popcorn using 1 1/2 tablespoons of kernels.
Convert the mixed fraction into a fraction number. Then we have
2 1/4 = 9/4
1 1/2 = 3/2
The ratio of cups of popcorn and tablespoons of kernels will be constant.
The number of tablespoons of kernels to use to make 6 cups of popcorn will be given as,
K / 6 = (3/2) / (9/4)
K = 4 tablespoons
The number of tablespoons of kernels to use to make 6 cups of popcorn will be 4 tablespoons. Option B is correct.
