Answer:

It is just right

Explanation:

Kermit's fav = 15 tea bags every 2 liters = 15/2 = 7.5 teabags per liter

Peggy made 90 teabags in 12 liters = 90/12 = 7.5 teabags per leter

Hence peggy used the same teabags per liter than kermit's favorite. It is just right.

edit: calculation error. corrected.

Your answer would be C:Just right.

Because:

2 liters of water = 15 tea bags

15/2 = 7.5 tea bags

Peggy needs to make 12 liters

12 x 7.5 = 90 tea bags

Conclusion:

Peggy's 12-liter batch of iced tea with 90 tea bags is JUST RIGHT.

Hope helps!-Aparri
