Answer:
option C
Step-by-step explanation:
In 3/4 pound of a spice mix, there is 5/6 cup of cinnamon
The ration of spice mix over Cinnamon is
[tex]\frac{\frac{3}{4} }{\frac{5}{6} } =\frac{3}{4} \cdot \frac{6}{5} =\frac{9}{10}[/tex]
Let x be the spice mix per pound
make a proportion
[tex]\frac{9}{10} =\frac{1}{x}[/tex]
cross multiply
[tex]9x=10\\x=\frac{10}{9}\\x= 1 \frac{1}{9}[/tex]
option C is the answer
