Answer:

B 9 cups

Explanation:

Grape juice to orange juice ratio is 2:3, for every 2 cups of grape juice 3 cups of orange juice are used.

6/2=3

3 x 3 =9

for every 6 cups of grape juice, 9 cups of orange juice are used

Check for answer by seeing if the ratio matches up.

6:9 simplified is 2:3.

Answer is correct.
