Almond oil and olive oil are mixed together in a bottle. The ratio of almond oil to olive oil is 2 to 3

1 answer

To find out how much oil is in the bottle in total, we need to consider the ratio.

Let's assume that there are 2 units of almond oil in the bottle.

Since the ratio of almond oil to olive oil is 2 to 3, there would be 3 units of olive oil in the bottle.

Thus, the total ratio of oil in the bottle is 2 + 3 = 5 units.

Now, let's assign a value to each unit. For example, let's say each unit represents 100 milliliters (ml).

Given that there are 5 units in total, we multiply 5 by 100 ml to find out that there are 500 ml of oil in the bottle.
