Answer:

  • strawberry: 30 g
  • blueberry: 24 g

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of ratio units is 5+4 = 9, so each of them represents ...

  (54 g)/9 = 6 g

of fruit. Multiplying the ratio by this value shows you the amount of each kind of fruit:

  strawberry : blueberry = 5 : 4 = 5(6 g) : 4(6 g)

  strawberry : blueberry = 30 g : 24 g

There are 30 g of strawberry and 24 g of blueberry in the smoothie.
