Question

bob needs to mix 2 cups of orange juice concentrate with 3.5 cups of water to make orange juice. bob has 6 cups of concentrate. how much orange juice can he make?

Answer 1

If 2 cups of orange juice concentrate and 3.5 cups of water are needed to make a glass of orange juice, then 6 cups of orange juice concentrate will make 3 cups. This is because 6/2 is 3.

However, this answer is only correct if you also have the necessary amount of water. (2 x 3 is 6, so you will need to multiply 3.5 x 3 to determine how much water you'll need: 3.5 x 3 = 10.5). 

Thus, given that you have the necessary amount of water, you will be able to make 3 cups of orange juice with 6 cups of concentrate.

Answer 2

3

2x3 is 6

so the answer is 3
