What is Ratio ?

When two things are in relation then one can be divided by other to form a ratio as p :q

It is given that

Ratio of Peanuts ( p) to Cashews (c) is 5 : 7

The jar contains total 48 ounces of the mix

this means

p + c = 48

p/c = 5/7

p = 5c/7

Substituting this value in equation 1

c + 5c/7 = 48

12c/7 = 48

c = 28

and so p = 20

Therefore ,the Cashew is 28 ounces and Peanuts is 20 ounces in the mix.
