Question

Carmen is making a strawberry drink. The recipe calls for 5 parts strawberry juice to three parts water. Carmen would like to make 64 fluid ounces of the strawberry drink. How many fluid ounces of strawberry juice and water does Carmen need?

I REALLY NEED HELP
EXPLAIN IF YOU CAN❤️❤️

Answer 1

5x + 3x = 64
8x = 64
x = 8

If we then insert that...
5(8) = 40 fl oz strawberry

3(8) = 24 fl oz water
