I am unable to figure out the formula to work this problem:

"A certain drug is made out of two compounds only: compound A and compound B. To make this drug, parts of compound A are used for every parts of compound B. If a chemist has milliliters of compound A, how many milliliters of this drug can be made? "

Please help.

Thanks
