A lemonade recipe calls for using a ratio of 2 cups of lemon juice for every 4 cups of water. What percent of lemonade that is water and the percent that is lemon juice if there is 6 cups of lemonade?
To make 6 cups, you will need 2 cups of lemon and 4 cups of water....6 total
TWO of the six are lemon 2/6 x 100 = 33.33% Lemon the rest is water 100-33.33= 66.67% water
OR
FOUR out of the SIX are water 4/6 x 100 = 66.67% Water
