Answer:

I would say 20 ounces of peach juice would be needed.

Explanation:

If the guava juice is 12 ounces for 3 parts, that means that each part has to be the same amount.

12 / 3 = 4

So their is 4 ounces per part.

Now you take the 5 parts peach juice, and multiply it by 4.

5*4=20.

20 is your answer.

I hope this helped!!
