Answer:

Emma would need 7/8 gallons of Ginger Ale to make the total of 4 gallons of punch.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, Emma used different quantities of juice to make a punch. To find the remainder, needed to make 4 gallons, we sum up the given quantities, and subtract it from the expected amount.

The summation of the given quantities of juice is as follows;

3/4 + 1 1/2 +7/8 = 25/8

We no subtract the quantity we already have from the expected amount, which is 4 gallons, thus;

4 - 25/8 = 7/8 gallons of Ginger Ale.

To confirm the answer, we sum up all the given quantities. Therefore;

3/4 + 1 1/2 + 7/8 + 7/8 = 4 gallons of punch.

Answer:

<h2>7/8 gallons of Ginger ale </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Total gallons of punch mixture = gallons of pineapple juice + orange juice + gallons of apple juice + gallons of Ginger ale

Given gallons of pineapple juice = 3/4 gallons

Orange juice = 1 1/2 gallons

Gallons of apple juice = 7/8

Total gallons of punch = 4 gallons

On substituting into the formula above:

4 = $\frac{3}{4} +\frac{3}{2}+\frac{7}{8}+Gallons\ of\ ginger\ ale$

$4=\frac{6+12+7}{8} + Gallons\ of\ ginger\ ale$ ]

gallons of ginger ale = $4-\frac{25}{8}$

gallons ginger ale = $\frac{7}{8}$

She needs 7/8 gallons of Ginger ale to make the total of 4 gallons of punch
