Question

To make the chocolate shake, Dona added 40 mL of chocolate syrup, 200 mL of milk, and 400 mL of water. How much milk, in liters, would be required if she uses 450 mL of water? a. 0.225 c. 225 b. 0.45 d. 0.05

Answer 1

Explanation:

Ratio of water and milk are in direct proportion

200 : 400 :: x : 450

Product of means = product of extremes

400 * x = 200 * 450

x =
`(200*450)/(400)`

= 225 ml of milk

1 ml = 1/1000 l

225 ml = 225 ÷ 1000 = 0.225 l
