Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{3}{5}=0.6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the initial ratio of 3 parts water to 5 parts fruit juice, you can set up a proportion (equivalent ratios) to determine the amount of water needed with just 1 part of fruit juice:

$\frac{water}{fruit}=\frac{3}{5}=\frac{x}{1}$

cross multiply: 5x = 3

divide: 5x/5 = 3/5 or x = 3/5

3/5 = 0.6 parts water

3÷5=.6 and .6=$\frac{6}{10}$ so $\frac{6}{10}$÷2= $\frac{3}{5}$. So, B.
