To get the answer we can use proportion
8 ginger ----------------- 3 fruit
12 ginger ----------------x
Crossmultiply now
8x=12*3 /:8
x=
x=<u />
To not change ratio we have to have 4.5 cups of fruilt juice. We initialy had 3, so we have to add 1.5 cup of fruit juice.

This is called a "substitution problem" is where you have variable that have defined values and plug them in value calculate the expression.
B = 3m + 2p # Starting equation
2 = (3)(5) + 2p # Substitution
2 = 15 + 2p # Multiplication
-13 = 2p # Subtract 15 from both sides
= p # Divide both sides from 2
p = # Use the reflexive property of equality
Hope this helps!
