It is important to be able to draw ratios from the above list of ingredients.

I can say that 1 Chicago Dog uses 1 Bun:

1 Bun : 1 Chicago Hot Dog


In symbol form:

1 B : 1 HdRMPCoCtHp2CsB


In conversion factor form:

1 Bun would make 1 Chicago Hot Dog:

1 Chicago Hot Dog : 1 Bun


In symbol form:

1 HdRMPCoCtHp2Cs B : 1 B
