Answer:

5.603 ounces

Explanation:

From the information given, you know the ounces of orange juice included in a bottle and the ounces of mixed fruit juice that the bottle has. So, to be able to determine how much of the bottle of mixed fruit juice is not orange juice​, you have to subtract the ounces of orange juice in the bottle from the ounces of mixed fruit juice that it has:

6.85-1.247=5.603

According to this, the answer is that the bottle of mixed fruit juice has 5.603 ounces that are not of orange juice.
