Answer: The option that correctly compares their ratios of blue to yellow paint is; 5/2 > 3/2

What is the ratio comparison?

For Jarrod:

Blue Cups Yellow Cups

  1                 2  

For Ian:

Blue Cups Yellow Cups

  5                 2

We have that their ratios are:

Jarrod: 1/2

Ian: 5/2

Comparing both ratios:

Jarrod uses 2/3 * 100% = 66.7% yellow paint and 33.3% blue paint.

Ian uses 71.4% blue paint and 28.6% yellow paint.

Thus, the ratio of blue to yellow paint for Jarrod is; 1/2

Ratio of blue to yellow paint for Ian is; 5/2
