An orange drink is made by mixing water and orange concentrate in a ratio of 5:1. How much orange concentrate is in 24 litres of orange drink

1 answer

The ratio of water to orange concentrate is 5:1. This means that for every 5 parts of water, there is 1 part of orange concentrate.

So, the total ratio is 5+1 = 6 parts.

To find the amount of orange concentrate in 24 litres of orange drink, we need to multiply the ratio by the total volume of the drink:

1/6 * 24 = 4 litres

Therefore, there is 4 litres of orange concentrate in 24 litres of orange drink.
