The total amount of punch and tea Ely will need is 64 ounces.
Explanation:
If Ely needs to double the amount of punch, and the original amount was 16 ounces, then the new amount of punch needed will be 16 * 2 = 32 ounces.
Similarly, if Ely needs to double the amount of tea, and the original amount was 8 ounces, then the new amount of tea needed will be 8 * 2 = 16 ounces.
Therefore, the total amount of punch and tea together that Ely will need is 32 ounces (punch) + 16 ounces (tea) = 48 ounces.
