Answer:

60%

Explanation:

6 cups of water

4 cups of orange juice

10 cups in all

10 × 10=100

To find the percentage, we are going to multiply the numbers by 10.

6 × 10 = 60 ⇒ 60% (water)

4 × 10 = 40 ⇒ 40% (juice)

The percentage of water is 60. So your answer is 60%.

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions. Have a great day!
