Answer :

Answer:

1:2

A rate of 1 lemon per two cups of lemonade

Step-by-step explanation:

9 lemons for 18 cups can be seen as:

[tex]\frac{9}{18}[/tex]

Simplify by dividing both numbers by 9:

[tex]\frac{9/9}{18/9} =\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

So, one lemon is used for two cups of lemonade. Half a lemon for 1 cup of lemonade...
