HELP ME PLZZ, I AINT GOT A BRAIN



If possible, write each comparison of concentrate to water as a ratio. If not possible, explain why.

A)The mix is 60% concentrate
B) The fraction of the mix that is water is 3/5.
C) The difference between the amount of concentrate and water is 4 cups.


Mix W= 5 cups concentrate and 8 cups of cold water
Mix X= 3 cups concentrate and 6 cups of cold water
Mix Y= 6 cups concentrate and 9 cups of cold water
Mix Z= 3 cups concentrate and 5 cups of cold water

Respuesta :

I'm pretty sure the answer is c but idk
all are possible as a ratio

A.
60%=60/100=6/10=3/5
5-3=2
concentrate to water=3:2

B.
3/5=water
2/5=concentrate
conctrate to water is 2:3

C. difference is 4 cups
5 cups and 1 cup
5:1
duh




if these are all ways to describe 1 ratio, then it depends on which one is bigger
C is anbibuous, it could mean that concentrate is 4 cups more than water or that water is 4 cups more than concentrate

and then we would use the w,x,y,z to find which one it is
it would be 3 cups then


the answer would be that it would be mix Y because 6:9=2:3
that means that the conctrate is smaller
then that means A is not possible since 60%>50% and concentrate is clearlly less than water

A is wrong
