Q:

a. Create a ratio table for making lemonade with a lemon juice-to-water ratio of 1: 3. Show how much lemon juice would be needed if you use 36 cups of water to make lemonade.b. How is the value of the ratio used to create the table?

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:A. we need 12 cups of lemon juice.B. we multiply the number of cups of water with the ratio of cups of lemon juice per cups of water. Step-by-step explanation:Water Lemon Juice 2 0,67 4 1,33 6 2,00 8 2,67 10 3,33 12 4,00 14 4,67 16 5,33 18 6,00 20 6,67 22 7,33 24 8,00 26 8,67 28 9,33 30 10,00 32 10,67 34 11,33 36 12,00 The ratio lemon juice to water 1:3 means that for every cup of lemon juice we must add 3 cups of water. Taking that into account, per every cup of water we are required to add 0,33 cups of lemon juice. To build the table, what we need to do is divide the number of cups of water that we are going to use between the number of cups of water required per every cup of lemon juice. Other way to approach the situation is representing mathematically the concept we just explained. Then, we have: [tex]#Cups_l_e_m_o_n =#Cups_w_a_t_e_r*(#Cups_l_e_m_o_n/#Cups_w_a_t_e_r)_r_a_t_i_o[/tex]Have a great day! Let me know if I can help you any further :D
