In my opinion it is always easier because a fraction like 5/6 and 1/4 is harder to add or subtract than .123 and .421

Answer: $1\dfrac13$ cups of pineapple juice .

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of direct proportion between x and y:

$\dfrac{x_1}{y_1}=\dfrac{x_2}{y_2}$

As per given,

Let x = quantity of pineapple juice and y = quantity of orange juice.

$x_1=\dfrac13\$ , $y_1=\dfrac34$ , $y_2=3$

Put these values in an equation we get

$\dfrac{\dfrac13}{\dfrac34}=\dfrac{x_2}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{4}{9}=\dfrac{x_2}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x_2=3\times\dfrac{4}{9}=\dfrac{4}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x_2=1\dfrac13$

Hence, he needs $1\dfrac13$ cups of pineapple juice .
