Aida is makeing some punch for a party. The recipe calls for a 3:3.50 ratio of gingerale to fruit juice. How much fruit juice would Aida have to use if she already poured 8L of gingerlae in the punch bowl?

ANSWER!

gingerale:fruitjuice
3:3.5
3.5/3*3=9.3L

i got the answer 9.3L is that right?

Yes. That's right.

3/3.5 = g/f = 8/f

3 f = 3.5*8
f = 3.5*8/3

Thanks Damon and ms.sue:D

You're welcome, Thara.

To determine the amount of fruit juice Aida should use, we need to find the quantity of ginger ale and scale it according to the given ratio.

Given that the ratio of ginger ale to fruit juice is 3:3.50, we can say that for every 3.5 units of fruit juice, Aida would use 3 units of ginger ale.

Since Aida has already poured 8 liters of ginger ale, we can set up the following proportion:

3 units of ginger ale / 3.5 units of fruit juice = 8 liters of ginger ale / x liters of fruit juice

To solve for x (the amount of fruit juice needed), we can cross-multiply and solve for x:

3 * x = 3.5 * 8

x = 3.5 * 8 / 3

x ≈ 9.33

So, the correct answer is approximately 9.33 liters of fruit juice. Therefore, your answer of 9.3L is very close but not exactly accurate. The correct answer would be 9.33L.
