Poorly Received Recipes

PandasEasyJunior level~10 min

Problem

You are given a DataFrame `recipes` with columns `recipe_id`, `upvotes`, and `downvotes`. `recipe_id` uniquely identifies each recipe, and each row gives how many upvotes and downvotes a recipe received. Every recipe has at least one vote.

A recipe is poorly received when its upvote share, `upvotes / (upvotes + downvotes)`, is strictly below `0.6`. Return the `recipe_id` of every poorly received recipe, ordered by `recipe_id` ascending.

Input data
