What is the basic ratio of ounces peanuts to raisins for a mixture 24 and 16ounces raisins?

The basic ratio of ounces of peanuts to raisins for a mixture of 24 ounces of peanuts and 16 ounces of raisins is 3:2.

To find the basic ratio, we need to determine the greatest common factor (GCF) of 24 and 16.

The factors of 24 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24.

The factors of 16 are 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16.

The GCF of 24 and 16 is 8.

Therefore, the basic ratio of ounces of peanuts to raisins is 24/8 : 16/8, which simplifies to 3:2.
