Question

In a fruit cocktail, for every 15 ml of

Answer 1

Answer:

The proportion of the cocktail is the coconut milk  $\dfrac{1 }{5}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The quantity of orange juice = o = 15 ml

The quantity of apple juice = a = 25 ml

The quantity of coconut milk = c = 10 ml

Let The total quantity of cocktail = x ml

Let The proportion of the cocktail is the coconut milk = y

Now According to question

The total quantity of cocktail = quantity of orange juice + quantity of apple juice +  quantity of coconut milk

Or, x = o + a + c

Or, x = 15 ml + 25 ml + 10 ml

Or, x = 50 ml

So, The total quantity of cocktail = x = 50 ml

Now,

∵ The quantity of coconut milk = 10 ml

So, The proportion of the cocktail is the coconut milk = $\dfrac{\textrm quantity of coconut milk}{\textrm total quantity of cocktail}$

Or, y = $\dfrac{c}{x}$

Or, y = $\dfrac{10 ml}{50 ml}$

Or, y =  $\dfrac{1 }{5}$

So, The proportion of the cocktail is the coconut milk = y = $\dfrac{1 }{5}$

Hence,The proportion of the cocktail is the coconut milk  $\dfrac{1 }{5}$ . Answer
