Question

A fruit juice company includes 1.139 ounces of pineapple juice in a 6.25​-ounce bottle of a mixed fruit juice. How much of the bottle of mixed fruit juice is NOT pineapple ​juice?

Answer 1

To find out how much of the bottle of mixed fruit juice is not pineapple juice, you can subtract the amount of pineapple juice from the total volume of the mixed fruit juice.

Given:
- Total volume of the mixed fruit juice = 6.25 ounces
- Volume of pineapple juice = 1.139 ounces

Now, perform the subtraction:

\[
\text{Volume of mixed fruit juice that is not pineapple juice} = \text{Total volume} - \text{Volume of pineapple juice}
\]
\[
= 6.25 \, \text{ounces} - 1.139 \, \text{ounces}
\]
\[
= 5.111 \, \text{ounces}
\]

Therefore, the amount of the bottle of mixed fruit juice that is not pineapple juice is **5.111 ounces**.
