standard_description: Understand the concept of a unit rate a/b associated with a ratio a:b with b ≠0, and use rate language in the context of a ratio relationship. For example, “This recipe has a ratio of 3 cups of flour to 4 cups of sugar, so there is 3/4 cup of flour for each cup of sugar.” “We paid $75 for 15 hamburgers, which is a rate of $5 per hamburger.” (Expectations for unit rates in this grade are limited to non-complex fractions.)

How many cups of salad dressing will this recipe make? Write an equation to represent your thinking. Assume that the herbs and salt do not change the amount of dressing.
If this recipe makes 6 servings, how much dressing would there be in one serving? Write a number sentence to represent your thinking.
