Answer:

Orange juice cups = 15

Mango juice cups = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{Fraction of orange cup used in one punch = }\frac{1}{2}\\\\\text{Fraction of mango cup used in one punch = }\frac{1}{5}\\\\\text{Now, to calculate the ratio : lcm of (2,5) = 10}\\\\So, Orange : Mango = \frac{1}{2}\times 10 :\frac{1}{5}\times 10=5:2\\\\\text{Now, required no. of orange juice cups = }\frac{\text{Orange cup ratio}}{\text{Sum of ratios}}\times 21\\\\=\frac{5}{7}\times 21=15\thinspace cups

\text{Now, required no. of mango juice cups = }\frac{\text{Mango cup ratio}}{\text{Sum of ratios}}\times 21\\\\=\frac{2}{7}\times 21=6\thinspace cups

Hence, No. of Orange juice cups needed to make 21 cups = 15 and no. of Mango juice cups needed to make 21 cups = 6

What is 1/2 of 2 3/4?
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

1 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

First, change the mixed fraction to improper fraction.

2 3/4 = 8/4 + 3/4 = 11/4

1/2 of 11/4 = (11/4)(1/2) = 11/8

11/4 - 11/8 = 22/8 - 11/8 = 11/8

11/8, or 1 3/8 is your answer.
