What is the ratio of fruit juice to lemonade in the second batch?

Answer 1

Answer:

Part 1.

Juice = 8 L.

Lemonade = 32 L.

Part 2.

20 L punch Josie can make.

Part 3.

New ratio juice : lemonade = 2 : 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1.

1+4 = 5 parts altogether, 1 parts for juice and 4 parts for lemonade.

40 : 5 = 8 L is 1 part.

Juice - 1 part - 8 L.

Lemonade - 4 parts - 4*8 = 32 L.

Part 2.

1 parts of juice needs 4 parts of lemonade

4 L of juice     needs  x L of lemonade

1 : 4 = 4 : x

x = 4*4/1 = 16 L lemonade

4+ 16 = 20 L punch Josie can make

Part 3.

It was 4 L of juice and 16 L of lemonade.

After 2 L lemonade was added, we have 4 L of juice and (16+2) = 18 L of lemonade.

4 L juice : 18 L lemonade = 4/2 L juice : 18/2 L lemonade =

= 2 L juice: 9L lemonade

New ratio juice : lemonade = 2 : 9
