She mixed 2.5 parts of orange juice per part of water, because there are 5 parts of orange juice and 2 of water, so the question asks how many parts of orange juice were mixed with each part of water. Since there are 2 parts of water, divide by 2 to get 2 1/2 or 2.5, and therefore 2.5 is the answer.
