Answer: 4 cup
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, the total number of cups in lemonade = 20 cups
In which some are cup of lemon juice and some are cups of water.
And, the ratio of cups of lemon juice and water in one lemonade = 1 : 4
Let the cups of lemon juice in one lemonade = 1 x
And, The cups of water in one lemonade = 4 x
Where x is any number.
Thus, 1 x + 4 x = 20
⇒ 5 x = 20
⇒ x = 20/5 = 4
Thus, Damon uses 4 cup of lemon juice in one lemonade.
|2.5| because 2 and 1/2 are also 2.5 written in decimal, and the absolute value is always positive
