There is 1 serving of lemon juice to 3 cups water. Hence why it's 1:3 ratio.

Since it's 1:3, then 2 servings to 6 cups of water, so on and so forth.

Multiply your lemon juice servings by 3 to find out how many cups of water for the table.

To find how much lemon juice for 36 cups of water, just divide 36 by 3 to get 12. 12 servings of lemon juice is just right for your 36 cups of water.

Answer: There is 12 servings of lemon juice needed for 36 cups of water.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of cups of water to make lemonade = 36

Ratio of lemon juice to water = 1 : 3

So, number of lemon juice cups be x

number of cups of water be 3x.

According to question, it becomes,


3x=36\\\\x=(36)/(3)\\\\x=12

Hence, there is 12 servings of lemon juice needed for 36 cups of water.
