Mrs. Wyatt mixes 8 tbsp of hot sauce with 3 cups of salsa in a bowl. Ms. Sherman mixed 12 tbsp of hot sauce with 4 cups of salsa in a bowl. Which salsa mixture is hotter/spicer?

Answer

Mrs. Wyatt's mixture

Step-by-step explanation:

So, Mrs. Wyatt's mixture as a fraction is 3/8 and Mr. Sherman's is 4/12.

We want to get a fraction for both of them with the same denominator, so you multiply 8 by 12, which gives you 96 as the denominator for both fractions.

Next you need to find the numerator, so lets find Mr. Sherman's first. You want to multiply 4 by 8, which gives you 32, so Mr. Sherman's mix is 32/96.

Next we want to find Mrs. Wyatt's numerator. SO we do 3 times 12 which gives us 36, so Mrs. Wyatt's mix is 36/96.

36.96 is a greater fraction than 32/96 so Mrs. Wyatt's mix is hotter than Mr. Sherman's mix.
