To determine the correct ratio of cups of water to cups of juice for 5 servings, we would need to examine the provided table of equivalent ratios. However, since there's no table visible, I can help you analyze the options based on typical ratios.

If we assume that the ratios are consistent with simple fractions, let’s break down the options:

  • 5:20 can be simplified to 1:4.
  • 3:2 remains 3:2.
  • 5:10 simplifies to 1:2.
  • 3:5 remains 3:5.

To find out the best answer, you would generally look for a ratio that fits the context of how servings are typically made. If we assume that the juice is being served in a larger quantity compared to water, 3:2 or 3:5 might make more sense compared to 5:20 or 5:10.

Without the actual table to refer to, the most common ratio in recipes for juice to water could reasonably be 3:2.

Therefore, the best answer available based on typical servings and ratios would be:

3:2
