Alla and balla together drink 750ML of water. Of alla drinks 50% more than balla how much does Alla drink

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

450 mL

Explanation:

The ratio of drink amounts can be written as ...

Alla : Balla = 1.50 : 1 = 3 : 2

Then the total of ratio units is 3+2=5, and each one represents 750 mL/5 = 150 mL.

Alla drinks 3 ratio units of water, or 3·150 mL.

Alla drinks 450 mL of water.
