Question
Francis is making a pizza. She plans to use 1 can of olives and 1 package of pepperoni. Assuming there are 20 olives in the can and 25 pepperonis in a package, write a ratio to represent the quantity of olives to pepperonis.(1 point)

Answer 1

To write the ratio of olives to pepperonis, you can use the quantities provided:

• Olives: 20
• Pepperonis: 25

The ratio of olives to pepperonis can be expressed as:

20 olives : 25 pepperonis

You can also simplify this ratio by dividing both numbers by their greatest common divisor, which is 5:

4 olives : 5 pepperonis

So, the ratio of olives to pepperonis is 4:5.
