If the price of 5 mangoes and 4 apples is the same as 3 mangoes and 7 apples what is the ratio of mangoes to apples?
The ratio of mangoes to apples is 1.5 (= 3/2, or 1.5:1).
To save a bit of space, let's just write "m" for mangoes and "a" for apples.
Now, the question tells us that "5 mangoes and 4 apples is the same as 3 mangoes and 7 apples". Being lazy and using abbreviations, we can write this as:
5m + 4a = 3m + 7a
We want the ratio of mangoes to apples, so let's put the mangoes on the left and the apples on the right:
5m - 3m = 7a - 4a
The next step is not too difficult:
2m = 3a
Clearly mangoes are more expensive. You can only buy two of them for the price of three apples. Anyhow, we need the ratio of m:a which is another way of saying "m divided by a". We can rearrange the previous equation to say:
m/a = 3/2

Why does the demand curve has a negative slope?
when price decrease purchasing power of the people increases so they can buy more with the same amount of money this is called income effect.if the price of some commodity say mangoes decreases while the price of its substitute like apple remain the same people fell that this commodity is relatively cheaper so they decrease the purchase of apples and buy more of mangoes this is substitution effect.fall in price bring new buyers into the market many people who could not buy at higher price now start buying

Is a rate a ratio always or never true?
A rate is a type of ratio that expresses the relationship between two quantities with different units, such as speed (miles per hour) or price per item. While all rates are ratios, not all ratios are rates, as some ratios compare quantities of the same unit (like 4 apples to 2 apples). Therefore, it’s accurate to say that a rate is always a ratio, but the reverse is not true.
Which has the higher density one bushel of apples or ten bushels of apples?
That would be a trick question. Their densities would be the same, since density is not a measurement of volume, but a ratio involving volume.
What is a ratio that expresses the same relationship between two quantities?
A ratio that expresses the same relationship between two quantities is a simplified or equivalent ratio. For example, if the ratio of apples to oranges is 2:3, then 4:6 or 6:9 also express the same relationship because they maintain the same proportionality. Ratios can be scaled up or down by multiplying or dividing both terms by the same non-zero number, preserving their relative relationship.
Do mangoes turn brown when cut?
Mangoes tend to stay the same color when cut. If you cut them and do not eat them immediately or store them properly they may discolor slightly, but not on the same level as an apple.
