Question

A ratio to fruit juice to sparking water in a punch recipe is 24 to 33. A bowel of punch is made using 92 ounces of sparkling water. How much punch is made

Answer 1

158.90 ounces of punch was made.

Explanation:

Ratio of the fruit juice to the sparking water =24:33

Let the volume of the juice in the punch be 24y ounces

Let the mass of the sparking water be 33y ounces

Volume of the sparking water used = 92 ounces

`(34* y) ounces=92 ounces`

`y=(92)/(33)=2.7878`

Volume of the juice =
`=(2* y) ounces=24* 2.7878 ounces=66.90 ounces`

Total volume of punch prepared = 92 ounces + 66.90 ounces = 158.90 ounces.

158.90 ounces of punch was made.
