if if 2 cups of concentrate makes 1 gallon of lemonade how much concentrate do you need to make a pint
1 gallon = 8 pints
2/8 = x/1
8x = 2
x = 2/8 = 1/4 cup
2 ounces
To find out how much concentrate you need to make a pint of lemonade, we need to determine the ratio between cups of concentrate and gallons of lemonade.
Given the information that 2 cups of concentrate make 1 gallon of lemonade, we can establish the following ratio:
2 cups : 1 gallon
Since there are 16 cups in a gallon, we can simplify the ratio further:
2 cups : 16 cups
Now, we can establish a ratio that considers pints instead of cups:
2 cups : 16 cups = 1 pint : X
To find the value of X, we can use cross-multiplication.
2 cups * X = 16 cups * 1 pint
Simplifying this equation:
2X = 16
Dividing both sides by 2:
X = 8
Therefore, to make a pint of lemonade using this concentrate, you would need 8 cups of concentrate.
