As given by the question

There are given 4.5 ounces of the mix for 6.5 ounces of water.

Now,

If 4.5 ounces of the mix for 6.5, then for the 1 ounces will be:


\begin{gathered} 4.5\rightarrow6.5 \\ 1\rightarrow(6.5)/(4.5) \\ 1\rightarrow1.44 \end{gathered}

Then,

For the 108 ounces of mix will be:


108*1.44=155.52

Hence, 155.52 ounces of water would need to for 108 ounces of mix.
