Step-by-step explanation:

Mackie is making hot sauce. Mackie puts in chile peppers and tomatoes in a ratio of 1 to 3.

Assuming Mackie puts in 9 tomatoes, the number of chile peppers should he put will be:
Ratio of chile peepers to tomato= 1;3

Since he put 9 tomatoes, chile peppers= (1×9)/3 = 9/3 = 3.

For 1 chile peeper, there'll be 3 tomatoes.

For 3 chile pepper, thee will be 9 tomatoes.
