Answer 1

Answer:

31 : 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mahesh's lemonade has a water to lemon juice ratio of 3:1.

Suresh's lemonade has a water to lemon juice of ratio 4:1.

both take one liter each

3:1 sum gives 4

4:1 sum gives 5

we know to equal the sum as both take one liter each so multiply the first ratio by 5 and second ratio by 4

15 : 5  sum 20

16 : 4   sum 20

decided to mix the 2 liter of lemonade together in a large container.

there just add above two ratio to get desired ratio of  lemonade and water

31 : 9.
