Question

In a fruit punch drink, the 3 ingredients are apple juice, orange juice and cranberry juice. If 1/4 of the drink is apple juice and 3/10 is orange juice then write the ratio of cranberry juice to apple juice to orange juice in its simplest form.

Answer 1

1/4 + 3/10 = 10/40 + 12/40 = 22/40

40/40 = 22/40 = 18/40

18/40 = cranberry j

Ratio=
A : O : C


10/40 : 12/40 : 18/40

0.25 : 0.3 : 0.45

Answer 2

• 5 : 6 : 9

Explanation:

The drink has 3 ingredients

• Apple juice = 1/4 = 25%
• Orange juice = 3/10 = 30%
• Cranberry juice = the rest = 100% - (25% + 30%) = 45%

The ratio is:

• 25 : 30 : 45

Simplified ratio:

• 5 : 6 : 9
