Answer:

1 to 0.125

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to unit rate of Sugar to butter. This is very important because it tells us which number to decrease to 1. In this case, the 2 cups of sugar.

Divide both sides by 2

2/1 = 1     0.25/2 = 0.125

unit rate of sugar to butter is 1 to 0.125

If, instead, we wanted the unit rate of butter to sugar, we would need to increase 1/4 to 1.

Divide both sides by 0.25

0.25/0.25 = 1   2/0.25 = 6

unit rate of butter to sugar is 1 to 6

Since I did extra work....
