Question

In a fruit punch drink, the 3 ingredients are apple juice, orange juice and cranberry juice. If 1 3 of the drink is apple juice and 1 2 is orange juice then write the ratio of cranberry juice to apple juice to orange juice in its simplest form.

Answer 1

Answer:

1 : 2 : 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Part of apples juice = $\frac{1}{3}$

Part of orange juice = $\frac{1}{2}$

So, the remaining part of juice = $1-\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{2}$

$=\frac{6-2-3}{6}$

$=\frac{1}{6}$

∵ In the fruit punch drink, there are only 3 ingredients are apple juice, orange juice and cranberry juice.

Thus, the part of cranberry juice = $\frac{1}{6}$

Hence, the ratio of cranberry juice to apple juice to orange juice

$=\frac{1}{6}:\frac{1}{3}:\frac{1}{2}$

$=1 : 2 : 3$

Answer 2

Answer:

1:2:3

Step-by-step explanation:

Concept= Ratio

Given= Fractional parts of fruit juices

To Find= Ratio of fruits in juice mixture

Explanation=

We have been given the information that

In a fruit punch drink, the 3 ingredients are apple juice, orange juice and cranberry juice. If 1/3 of the drink is apple juice and 1/2 is orange juice.

So the left over is cranberry juice.

Part of apple juice in fruit punch= 1/3

Part of orange juice in Fruit punch= 1/2

Part of Cranberry juice in fruit punch= 1-(apple+orange)

=> 1 - apple - orange

=> 1 - 1/3 - 1/2

=> 6-2-3/6= 1/6

Cranberry = 1/6.

Ratio of Juices in fruit punch= Cranberry : Apple : Orange

=> 1/6 : 1/3 : 1/2

bringing in simplest form by multiplying each by 6

=> 1 : 2 : 3.

The ratio of cranberry juice to apple juice to orange juice in its simplest form is 1 : 2 : 3.
