Answer:

6/24=x/100

Explanation:

Computation for the equation that could be used to find x, the percent of lemonade in the whole recipe

The EQUATION to find x, the percent of lemonade in the whole recipe will be :

6 /24=x/100

Hence, cross multiply

x=6/24×100

x=0.25×100

x=25%

Therefore the equation to find x, the percent of lemonade in the whole recipe will be 6/24=x/100 which will give us x= 25% when will cross multiply.
