You mix soda water, fruit punch concentrate, and ginger ale in the ratio of 1 : 2 : 5 to make fruit punch. How many pints of each ingredient should you use to make 4 gallons of fruit punch?

Respuesta :

All you do is 1x+2x+5x=8x then you turn 4 s into pints. 1 gallon equals 4 pints 4*4=16 pints. 8x=16 x=2. Then you multiply everything by 2

1*2=2 
2*2=4
2*5=10

2pints of soda water
4 pints of fruit punch
10 pints of ginger ale
