Answer: 30% of the blend is pineapple juice
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 7 pineapples yield 12 oz of juice, 1 pineapple yields 1 5/7 oz of juice.
Since 4 apples yield 16 oz of juice, 1 apple yields 4 oz of juice.
She’s making a pineapple-apple juice where the ratio of apples and pineapples used is 1:1. To find what percent of the blend is pineapple juice:
1 apple to 1 pineapple. The combined amount of juice they produce is 5 5/7 oz. The formula to find what percent of teh blend is pineapple juice is oz of pineapple juice divided by the combined amount of juice in the blend.
1 5/7 divided by 5 5/7 equals 3/10, or 30%.
