GPT 3.5
1. To find out how much water is mixed with 6 liters of orange concentrate, we need to determine the amount of water in the ratio.

In a 5:1 ratio, the total parts are 5 + 1 = 6.

Since the ratio is 5:1, the amount of water is 5/6 of the total mixture.

Therefore, the amount of water mixed with 6 liters of orange concentrate is (5/6) * 6 = 5 liters.

2. To find out how much orange concentrate is in 24 liters of orange drink, we need to determine the amount of concentrate in the ratio.

In a 5:1 ratio, the total parts are 5 + 1 = 6.

Since the ratio is 5:1, the amount of concentrate is 1/6 of the total mixture.

Therefore, the amount of orange concentrate in 24 liters of orange drink is (1/6) * 24 = 4 liters.
