Two litres of juice is poured into 10 litres of water. What fraction of the drink is juice?
Correction.
Sorry my mistake.
2 l + 10 l = 12 l
2 l / 12 l = 2 / 2 * 6 = 1 / 6
2 litres of juice mixed with 8 litres of water
Would the answer be 8 litres or 10 litres
Well, let's think about this mathematically. If we have 2 litres of juice and we pour it into 10 litres of water, we end up with a total of 12 litres of liquid. To find the fraction of the drink that is juice, we divide the amount of juice (2 litres) by the total amount of liquid (12 litres). So, 2/12 simplifies to 1/6.
But hey, who needs math when you have jokes? So, the fraction of the drink that is juice is like asking, "How much juice do you need to turn that water into a fancy cocktail? Just a splash, my friend. Just a splash."
To find the fraction of the drink that is juice, we need to determine the total volume of the drink and the volume of the juice.
Given that two litres of juice are poured into 10 litres of water, the total volume of the drink is 2 + 10 = 12 litres.
To calculate the fraction of the drink that is juice, we divide the volume of the juice by the total volume of the drink:
Fraction of juice = Volume of juice / Total volume of drink
Volume of juice = 2 litres
Total volume of drink = 12 litres
Fraction of juice = 2 / 12
To simplify the fraction, we can divide the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which in this case is 2:
Fraction of juice = 1 / 6
Therefore, the fraction of the drink that is juice is 1/6.
1 l + 10 l = 11 l
1 l / 11 l = 1 / 11
