You add 5/2 tablespoons of olive oil for every 13/8 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar to make 99 tablespoons of bread dip. How much olive oil and balsamic vinegar do you use?

Verified Answer :

5/2 tbs = 20/8 tbs
20/8 tbs + 13/8 tbs = 33/8 tbs per mixture
99 = 792/8 tbs of mixture needed
792 ÷ 33 = 24 mixtures needed

24mixtures × 5/2 tbs per mixture = 60 tbs of olive oil
and 24 mixtures x 13/8 tbs per mixture = 39 tbs of balsamic vinegar.
