Enzo is reading the label of his soda. The ingredients list includes “water, high fructose corn syrup, caramel, red #40, natural flavor.” What can Enzo conclude from reading this list?
Answer
A
There is more water than high fructose corn syrup in the soda.
B
There is more caramel than water in the soda.
C
There is more natural flavor than red #40 in the soda.
D
There is more red #40 than caramel in the soda.
Explanation
Ingredients are generally listed from greatest to least by weight. Water appears before high fructose corn syrup, so the soda contains more water than high fructose corn syrup. The later ingredients are present in smaller amounts than those listed before them.
