Question 18

The ratio of all-purpose flour to rice flour in the recipe is 1:1.

The ratio of all-purpose flour to rice flour is 1:1, as both flours are used in equal amounts of 1/4 cup each.

A) 1:04

This option suggests a ratio that implies four parts of rice flour for every one part of all-purpose flour. However, since both flours are used equally in the recipe, this ratio is incorrect.

B) 1:01

This option accurately represents the ratio of all-purpose flour to rice flour. With both flours at 1/4 cup, the ratio simplifies to 1:1, which is expressed as 1:01 in this context.

C) 2:08

This option indicates a ratio that implies two parts of all-purpose flour to eight parts of rice flour. This does not reflect the actual quantities used in the recipe, where both are equal, making this option incorrect.

D) 1:16

This option suggests a ratio of one part all-purpose flour to sixteen parts rice flour, which is not consistent with the recipe's equal amounts of both flours. Thus, this option is incorrect.

Conclusion

The correct answer, 1:01, effectively represents the equal usage of all-purpose and rice flour in the pancake recipe. All other options misinterpret the quantities and do not accurately reflect the relationship between the two types of flour used. Therefore, option B is the only correct representation of the ratio.
