Answer:

• Jaylan: 3 3/4 cups water per cup lime juice
• Wanchen: 6/7 cups water per cup lime juice
• Jaylan's limeade has a weaker flavor.

Explanation:

To find the unit rate as cups of water per cup of lime juice, divide water by lime juice:

Jaylan: (3/4 cups water)/(1/5 cups juice) = 15/4 water/juice

= 3 3/4 cups water per cup juice

Wanchen: (2/7 cups water)/(1/3 cups juice) = 6/7 water/juice

= 6/7 cups water per cup juice

__

Jaylan's limeade as a weaker lime flavor.
