You mix soda water, fruit punch concentrate, and ginger ale in the ratio of 1 : 2 : 5 to make fruit punch. How many pints of eac

EastWind [94]

So the ratio is 1 to 2 to 5
so basically 1 unit of soda water to 2 units of fruit punch to 5 units of ginger ale

total is 1+2+5=8 units

so 4 gallons=8 units
divide by 8
1/2 gallon=1 unit

soda water=1 unit=1/2 gallon
fruit punch=2 unit=1/2 times 2=1 gallon
ginger ale=5 unit=5 times 1/2=5/2=2 and 1/2 gallon

soda water=1/2 gallon
fruit punch concentrate=1 gallon
ginger ale=5/2 gallon or 2 and 1/2 gallon

0.6 miles.

Since there is 0.8 miles to hike in total, she hiked 0.2 miles.

To solve, we just easily subtract the amount that Liz hiked from the amount that needs to be hiked.

She hiked 0.2 miles, which means we need to subtract 0.2 from 0.8.

8 - 2 = 6

The answer is 0.6 miles.
