Question

Wendell is making punch for a party. The recipe he is using says to mix 4 cups pineapple juice, 8 cups orange juice, and 12 cups lemon-lime soda in order to make 12 servings of punch. How many cups of pineapple juice will Mrs. Malone need if she plans on making 36 servings of punch?

My answer: 12 cups

Answer 1

Agree.

Answer 2

I did 36 * 4 = 144

Then I did 144 / 12 = 12

We don’t need to know the orange juice and the lemon-lime soda
