Understanding Pepper Ratios in Recipes

The video tutorial explores a problem involving two recipes for blackened catfish, one by Akeem and the other by Tisha, each using a different amount of ground pepper for a set number of fillets. The tutorial guides viewers through calculating the pepper-to-fillets ratio for both recipes, setting up a table to compare the pepper usage when both make the same number of fillets. It concludes that Akeem's fillets have a stronger pepper taste as he uses more pepper for the same number of fillets compared to Tisha.

What is the main problem being addressed in the video?

• Comparing the cooking times of Akeem and Tisha

• Determining which recipe uses more ground pepper
