Question

There are three different recipes. Two taste the same.

1. Mix 4 cups of orange juice with 6 cups of pineapple juice

2. Mix 6 cups of orange juice with 9 cups of pineapple juice

3. Mix 9 cups of orange juice with 12 cups of pineapple juice

Which two taste the same?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

To find the answer, set up like denominators.

4/6 and 6/9 and 9/12 can have a lowest common denominator of 36. Therefore,

4/6 = 24/36

6/9 = 24/36

9/12 = 27/36

Therefore mixtures 1 and 2 taste the same.
