Example Question #482 : Isee Lower Level (Grades 5 6) Mathematics Achievement
In order to make Lilly's Lemonade, for every 16 oz of water, 6 tablespoons of lemon juice is needed. If you want to use 8 oz of water, how much lemon juice would you need?
8 tablespoons
14 tablespoons
3 tablespoons
12 tablespoons
4 tablespoons
3 tablespoons
In order to solve this problem, we must set up a ratio.
For every 16 oz of water, we need 6 tablespoons of lemon juice.
The ratio that we get is
16 : 6.
If we want to use only 8 oz of water, we need to find out how much lemon juice is needed.
The amount of lemon juice we need, x, is currently unknown.
Our new ratio is
8 : x.
Looking at the first number in the two ratios, dividing 16 by 8 will get us
16 ÷ 8 = 2.
Let's divide the second number in our first ratio by 2 to solve for x.
So,
6 ÷ 2 = 3.
We need 3 tablespoons of lemon juice for 8 oz of water.
