Question

mixture 1there is 1 1/2 teaspoons and 1 cupmixture 2there is 1/2 teaspoons and 2 cupsmixture 3 there is 1/4 teaspoons and 1 cup

Answer 1

Mixture 1 would taste different

Explanation

the taste is given by the proportion of teaspoons and cups in eeach mixture, let's find them

Step 1

mixture 1

$\begin{gathered} 1\frac{1}{2}=\frac{(1\cdot2)+1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}=1.5 \\ \text{then} \\ 1.5\text{ teaspoons }\rightarrow1\text{ cup} \\ \text{the proportion is} \\ \frac{1.5}{1}=1.5\frac{teaspoon}{\text{cup}} \end{gathered}$

mixture 2

$\begin{gathered} \frac{1}{2}=0.5 \\ \text{then} \\ 0.5\text{ teaspoonss}\rightarrow2\text{ cups} \\ \text{the proportion is} \\ \frac{0.5\text{ teaspoons}}{2\text{ cups}}=0.25\frac{teaspoons}{\text{cup}} \end{gathered}$

mixture 3

$\begin{gathered} \frac{1}{4}=0.25 \\ \text{then} \\ 0.25\text{ teaspoons}\rightarrow1\text{ cup} \\ \text{the proportion is} \\ \frac{0.25}{1}=0.25\text{ }\frac{teaspoons}{\text{cup}} \end{gathered}$

Step 3

compare the proportions

$\begin{gathered} \text{mixture 1=1.5} \\ \text{mixture 2=0}.25 \\ \text{mixture 3=0.25} \\ \end{gathered}$

Hence

Mixture 1 would taste different.
