Every summer, Ronald makes cranberry-pear jam with the fruit he collects from his garden. Last summer, he used 3 cups of cranberries and 5 cups of pears to make his jam. This summer, Ronald decided to make an even larger batch using 5 cups of cranberries and 8 cups of pears. Which batch of jam tasted more like cranberries?

The batch of jam from this summer

Step-by-step explanation:

Every summer, Ronald makes cranberry-pear jam with the fruit he collects from his garden.

For last summer

Last summer, he used 3 cups of cranberries and 5 cups of pears to make his jam.

Hence,

5 cup of pears = 3 cups of cranberries

1 cup of pears = x

Cross Multiply

5x = 3

x = 3/5

x = 0.6

1 cup of pears = 0.6 cup of cranberries

For this summer

This summer, Ronald decided to make an even larger batch using 5 cups of cranberries and 8 cups of pears.

Hence,

8 cup of pears = 5 cups of cranberries

1 cup of pears = x

Cross Multiply

8x = 5

x = 5/8

x = 0.625

1 cup of pears = 0.625 cup of cranberries

From the above calculation we can see that the quantity of cranberries to 1 cup of pears from this summer is higher than that of last summer

Therefore, the batch of jam that tasted more like cranberries is the batch of jam from this summer
