Ginny makes orange drink by mixing 2 parts squash with 7 parts water.
She has 400 ml of squash.
How much orange drink can she make?
2:7 = 400:1400
To find out how much orange drink Ginny can make, we need to calculate the total volume of the mixture she can produce.
The ratio of squash to water is 2:7. This means that for every 2 parts of squash, there are 7 parts of water in the mixture.
Since Ginny has 400 ml of squash, we can calculate the amount of water needed by multiplying 400 ml by the ratio of 7/2.
Water needed = 400 ml × (7/2) = 400 ml × 3.5 = 1400 ml.
Therefore, Ginny can make a total of 1400 ml (or 1.4 liters) of orange drink by mixing the 400 ml of squash with 1400 ml of water.
To find the amount of orange drink Ginny can make, we need to calculate the total volume of the mixture.
The ratio of squash to water is 2:7. This means that for every 2 parts of squash, there are 7 parts of water.
Since Ginny has 400 ml of squash, we can calculate the volume of water needed by multiplying 400 ml by the ratio of water to squash:
400 ml * (7 parts water / 2 parts squash) = 400 ml * (7/2) = 400 ml * 3.5
Calculating the above, we find:
400 ml * 3.5 = 1400 ml
Therefore, Ginny can make 1400 ml of orange drink.
