Ratios - Equivalent, Shrinking Recipes with Integer Multiples - Fractions (Level 2)

This math topic focuses on practical applications of ratios and fractions, specifically in scenarios related to recipes and mixtures. It involves solving problems that require finding the amount of one ingredient based on the given quantity of another, using equivalent ratios. Each problem provides a specific ingredient ratio and asks to calculate the needed quantity when another ingredient's amount is varied. This helps strengthen understanding of proportional relationships and manipulation of fractions within real-world contexts such as cooking or mixing colors.
