To determine the correct ratio of cups of water to cups of juice for 5 servings, we need to refer to the original table of equivalent ratios that you mentioned. However, since I don't have access to that table, I can provide guidance based on common practices in ratio problems.
If the given ratios are consistent (for example, if there’s a direct scale of the servings), we would use the same method to find the necessary ratio for 5 servings.
In the absence of a specific table, it would be useful to derive the ratio from known values.
-
If the ratio is 3:5 (for 3 cups of water to 5 cups of juice), for any increased number of servings:
- To find servings based on actual known values, you might scale up the portions while maintaining the same ratio. Hence 5 servings could expand into an appropriate multiple.
-
If your table gives the ratio of cups of water to cups of juice directly for 5 servings, then apply that.
Since the answers provided are limited:
- If maintaining the ratios as earlier, a ratio maintaining 3:5 could reflect proper measurements.
- Hence, “3:5” suggests a larger ratio reflects towards higher juice proportions.
If the correct answer in your context is supported through your table information, the response would be 3:5. If you still have confusion deriving from original table values, please clarify or provide that ratio for guidance.
