Question

To make 5 smoothies that have the same ratio of apple juice to orange juice as 1 smoothie does, how much apple juice and orange juice should Sarah use? Explain.

Answer 1

40 Apple juice and 20 Orange juice

Explanation:

From the diagram, you know that 4 OJ makes one drink, so to make 5 drinks, you need 5 times that, or 20 OJ. You can also see that you need twice as much AJ as OJ, so that means you need 40 AJ.

*OJ = Orange juice and AJ = Apple juice
