Answer 2

Answer:

The batch of guacamole is: 6.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

A recipe for guacamole uses 12% lime juice.

This means that:

A recipe for guacamole uses 0.12 lime juice.

This means that:

1 cup of lime juice= 1/0.12 guacamole.

Also,

a batch contains 0.75 cup of lime juice.

This means that:

   0.75 cups of lime juice=0.75/0.12 guacamole.

i.e.

   0.75 cups of lime juice=6.25 guacamole.

Hence, one batch = 6.25 guacamole.
