Question

John uses 2/5 cup of orange juice for every 1/3 cup of pineapple juice to make a fruit punch. Write the number of cups of orange juice John uses for 1 cup of pineapple juice.

Answer 1

Answer : 1 1/5
Step by step explanation :
2/5 orange = 1/3 pineapple
There are multiple ways to go about with this problem, but let’s just go with one of the simplest : Multiplying by the same thing on both sides.
How do we get from 1/3 to 1? We multiply by 3. So, to find how many cups of orange juice we use we need to multiply by 3 too.
2/5 times 3 = 6/5
6/5 = 1 and 1/5
So 1 and 1/5 is the answers, have a great day, and mark brainliest if possible!
