The values in the second column are double the values in the first column. Therefore, the proportion is 2/1 or simply 2.

Apologies, I made a mistake in my previous response.

To find the proportion of the values in the second column to the values in the first column, we can divide the second column values by the first column values.

For the first row, 5 cups of flour divided by 2 pizzas is 5/2 or 2.5.
For the second row, 10 cups of flour divided by 4 pizzas is 10/4 or 2.5.
For the third row, 20 cups of flour divided by 8 pizzas is 20/8 or 2.5.

Therefore, the proportion of the values in the second column to the values in the first column is 2.5/1 or simply 2.5.

Apologies for the oversight. To simplify the fraction 2.5/1, we divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 0.5. Dividing 2.5 by 0.5 and 1 by 0.5, we get 5/2.

Therefore, the fraction in simplest form is 5/2.
