Answer:

Clark and Jake drank a cup of juice together

Clark drank 1/3 of the juice

the rest is drank by Jake

the juice drank by Jake be x

x+1/3 = 1

x = 1-1/3

x = 2/3

Jake drank 2/3 fraction of the juice

Hope this helps you

Answer:

19/27

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that height of juice decreases by 1/3 rd

hence amount of juice remainig = volume of cone with height 2/3  h (h-1/3  h)

radius of this cone(leftover juice) by property of similar triangles = 2/3  r

hence volume of juice leftover = 1/3 * pi * (2/3  r)^2 * 2/3 h= 1/3 *pi (8 /27)*r^2*h

volume of original cone of filled juice is = 1/3 pi r^2 h

hence volume of juice drunk by clark = 1/3 * pi *r^2 * h ( 1 - 8/27)

                                                              =  1/3 * pi *r^2 * h (19/27)

hence fraction of juice drunk by clark =   (1/3 * pi *r^2 * h (19/27))/ 1/3*pi*r^2*h

                                                              = 19/27

hence your answer is 19/27
