Select all the drinks that have the same proportion of apple to pineapple juices as Alex’s original recipe?

cups of cups of cups of

Drink // apple juice // Orange juice // pineapple juce


ORIGINAL = 1 1/4 -- 1 3/4 -- 1/2
RECIPE


DRINK 1 = 1 2/3 -- 2 1/3 -- 2/3

Answer:

A. Drink 1

B. Drink 2

Explanation:

We are given that,

The quantities of fruit juice in original recipe are:

Apple juice =
1(1)/(4) =
(5)/(4)

Orange juice =
1(3)/(4) =
(12)/(4) = 3

Pineapple juice =
(1)/(2)

So, we get that,

The proportion of apple juice to pineapple juice in the original recipe is
((5)/(4))/((1)/(2)) =
(5)/(2).

Now, according to the options , we will check which drink have apple to pineapple juice ratio equal to
(5)/(2).

Simplifying the mixed fraction into rational numbers, we get,

Drink A:
((5)/(3))/((2)/(3)) =
(5)/(2).

Drink B:
((5)/(2))/(1) =
(5)/(2).

Drink C:
(5)/(1) = 5

Drink D:
((4)/(3))/((1)/(3)) =
(4)/(1) = 4

Drink E:
((7)/(8))/((6)/(8)) =
(7)/(6).

So, we see that,

Drinks A and B have the same proportion of apple to pineapple juice as that of the original recipe.
