Answer:

50 cups of water

Explanation:

If there is thirty cups of lemon juice, you would divide it by six cups to see how many portions there are. There are five portions of it, so you would multiply the ten cups of water by five and the six cups of lemon juice by five. 30 cups of lemon juice and 50 cups of water is what you would get.
