Answer:
For every 1 portion of water, there is 8 of milk as the ration is 8:1. So we know that there is 96kg of milk. we have to divide this by 8 to get the amount of water.
96/8=12
So there are 12kg of water.
Another way of seeing this is to times the ratio until you get the desired amount:
8:1
16:2
24:3
32:4
40:5
48:6
56:7
64:8
72:9
80:10
88:11
96:12
