Mrs Cobb makes and sells her own apple-cranberry juice. In pitcher A, she mixed 4

cranberry flavoured cubes and 3 apple flavoured cubes, with some water. In pitcher B,

she used 3 cranberry and 2 apple flavoured cubes in the same amount of water. If you

ask for a drink that has a stronger cranberry taste, from which pitcher should she pour

your drink?

If you put them into fractions you get 4/3 and 3/2

Now let's give them the same denominator.

3*2=6 and vice versa

So let's multiply the numerators by the same numbers

4/3= 8/6

And 3/2 = 9/6

The second fraction has more parts cranberry so....
She you should ask for 3 cranberry cubes and 2 Apple cubes!
