If a ratio of skiers and snumboarders is 1:2, and if there are 1250 snowboarders more than skiers, it means that is that there 2500 snowboarders and 1250 skiers.
How to check it? 2500 is 1250 more than 1250 and the ratio is still 1:2 (there are two times more snowboarders than skiers). Both conditions are fulfiled, so it's correct.
Answer:
112.5 mL
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount of grape juice to add. Then the total amount of grape juice in the mix is ...
0.15(1800) +x = 0.20(1800+x)
270 +x = 360 + 0.2x . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
0.8x = 90 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 270+0.2x
x = 90/0.8 = 112.5 . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x
112 mL of grape juice should be added to make a mix that is 20% grape juice.
Answer:
