Question

an 80 ounce bottle of juice contains 32 ounces of water . A 64 ouce bottle of orange juice has 48 ounces of water . Which juice has a greater percent of water?

Answer 1

Answer:

The 64 ounce bottle has a greater percentage of water.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percentage of something like 32/84 (which is just saying 32 ounces of 80 are water) you divide the numerator by the denominator.

32 divided by 80 equals 0.4

Then take your quotient (the answer) and multiply that by 100.

0.4 * 100 = 40 And that's your percentage for 32/80.

Repeat those steps for 48/60

1) 48 divided by 64 equals 0.75

2) 0.75 * 100 = 75

Comparing the two, 75% is greater than 40%.
