Question

Jamya mixes 3 cups of soda with 5 cups of punch. How much does she mix with 18 cups of punch?

Answer 1

Well we can make a proportion in this scenario

So 3 cups of soda to 5 cups of punch

And how much soda for 18 punch.

Well we can do this

make “x” the amount of soda

And then make a proportion

3/5 = x/ 18

Now solve

You can cross multiply

54=5x

x=10.8

10.8 soda
