Question #96eb3

Answer 1

The amount of juice needed is `31.5L`

Explanation:

If each glass is filled to `350 ml`, and there are `450` glasses,

Total volume of liquid `TV=350ml*450 = 157500ml`

`TV` is also represented by `5` which is the sum of the ratio of `4:1` water to juice.

To find the quantity of water to juice we will then need to divide the `TV` by `5` then multiply by the proportion defined by the ratio.

`(157500ml)/5 = 31500ml`

The amount of juice used is then: `31500ml xx 1 = 31500ml`

Juice = `31500ml = 31.5l`

Answer 2

`31.5` litres

Explanation:

Find the total volume first:

`450` glasses each contain `350` ml

`450 xx 350 = 157,500` ml.

Convert to litres immediately (`div 1000`)

`157,500 div 1000 =157.5` litres

The ratio: `" water : juice "` is `" "4" : "1`

This means that `4/5` is water and only`1/5` is juice.

The volume of juice is therefore:

`1/5 xx 157.5 = 31.5` litres
