Thank you
hi there, i'd like to ask as i was a bit confused with the question just now. in your model, D has 6 units while M has 3 units. however, in the question it states that D:M is 3:1
Could you further elaborate why do we need to x3 for the 1 unit instead of x2?
Sorry both for the late reply. My answer is actually wrong. Initially, i did it the "right" way but it wasn't a whole number that i got initially. This "wrong method" actually resulted in whole number.
I asked ard with a few of my friends and agreed method 1 was correct. But i am waiting for right answer to be shown here.
