Before you add 1/2 and 2/3 you need to find common denominators which is 6. So for 1/2 you need to multiply the numerator and denominator by 3 and for 2/3 you need to multiply the numerator and denominator by 2. 1/2 = 3/6 and 2/3= 4/6; now add 3/6 + 4/6= 7/6.

You can converte them to a common denominator like 6. 1/2 would be 3/6. 2/3 would be 4/6.

Answer:

64/3 tablespoons of sugar for 32 ounces of water

Step-by-step explanation:

In these kinds of questions it is nice to find how muc of 1 thing there is for every ONE of another.  so 8 tablespoons of sugar for 12 ouncesof water you can divide both sides by 8 or 12.

Dividing it by 8 gets 8/8 = 1 tablespoon of sugar for 12/8 = 1.5 ounces of water.

Dividing by 12 gets 8/12 = 2/3 tablespoon of sugar for 12/12 = 1 ounce of water.

Now you can take one or the other and multiply it to fit whichever you want to fit a ratio.

It asks what happens if you use 32 ounces of water, so lets use the ratio where we hae 1 ounce, then multiply everything by 32.

2/3 tablespoon of sugar for 1 ounce of water

Multiply by 32 and you get 32*(2/3) = 64/3 tablespoons of sugar for 32 ounces of water
