To get the answer we can use proportion
8 ginger ----------------- 3 fruit
12 ginger ----------------x
Crossmultiply now
8x=12*3                /:8
x=\frac{12*3}{8}
x=<u />\frac{36}{8}  \\ x=4.5
To not change ratio we have to have 4.5 cups of fruilt juice. We initialy had 3, so we have to add 1.5 cup of fruit juice.
