I'd like the ratio of Wonder cupcakes to my guest to be 3 to 2 and there will be 2 guests

To maintain the ratio of Wonder cupcakes to guests as 3 to 2, with 2 guests, here's how you calculate the number of cupcakes needed:

Given ratio: 3 (cupcakes) : 2 (guests)

For 2 guests:
\[
\text{Number of cupcakes} = \frac{3}{2} \times 2 = 3 \text{ cupcakes}
\]

So, you'll need 3 Wonder cupcakes to maintain the 3:2 ratio for your 2 guests.

2. If you wanted to increase the ratio to 4:3, how many cupcakes would you need for 3 guests?
3. What if the ratio were 5:4 and you had 8 guests? How many cupcakes would you need?
4. If you had only 6 cupcakes, how many guests could you serve while maintaining the 3:2 ratio?
5. How would the ratio change if you decided to serve only 1 cupcake per guest?

**Tip:** Ratios can be scaled up or down by multiplying or dividing both sides by the same number, allowing you to adjust quantities while maintaining the same proportion.
