Annie's current level of consumption, let MUp denote Annie's marginal utility from an additional pound of pasta, and let MUb denote Annie's marginal utility from an additional loaf of bread.  Thus, MUp/MUb represents   the number of loaves of bread Annie has to give up in order to buy another pound of pasta.    the number of loaves of bread Annie is willing to give up to have another pound of pasta.   the number of pounds of pasta Annie has to give up in order to buy another loaf of bread.
