If you've spent any time in the kitchen, then you already know quite a bit about ratios. A ratio shows a relationship between two numbers or quantities, usually with the same units of measurement.

For example, a rice recipe calls for 2 cups of water to 1 cup rice.

The ratio of water to rice is 2 to 1.

What is the ratio of oil to vinegar in a salad dressing recipe that calls for 2 tablespoons oil to 1 tablespoon vinegar?
