Question
Rosanne is making a swirled custard dessert to take to her friend's barbecue. She mixes chocolate and vanilla custard in a large bowl for the adults. Then, she decides to make a smaller portion for the kids. In a small bowl, Rosanne mixes half the amount of chocolate custard and half the amount of vanilla custard. Which bowl of custard is more chocolatey?
Solution
The chocolate content in both bowls would be the same. This is because Rosanne used the same ratio of chocolate to vanilla custard in both the large and small bowls. Even though the small bowl has less custard overall, the proportion of chocolate to vanilla is the same as in the large bowl. Therefore, neither bowl is more chocolatey than the other.
