Question

Jonna mixes 1/4 gallon of orange juice and 1/2 gallon of pineapple juice to make punch

Answer 1

Answer: There are 12 servings which can be made by Jonna.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of gallon of orange juice is mixed to make punch is given by

$\frac{1}{4}$

Number of gallon of pineapple juice is mixed to make punch is given by

$\frac{1}{2}$

Number of gallon in each serving is given by

$\frac{1}{16}$

Now, we need to find the number of servings Jonna can make ,

So, it will be

$\text{Number of servings}=\frac{\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{1}{16}}\\\\\text{Number of servings}=\frac{\frac{1+2}{4}}{\frac{1}{16}}\\\\\text{Number of servings}=\frac{3\times 16}{4}\\\\\text{Number of servings}=3\times 4=12$

So, there are 12 servings which can be made by Jonna.

Answer 2

Answer:

12 servings

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of gallons of orange juice mixed in punch = $\frac{1}{4}$

Number of gallons of pineapple juice mixed in punch = $\frac{1}{2}$

Total numbers of gallons made by mixing orange and pineapple juice = $\frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{2} = \frac{2+1}{4} = \frac{3}{4}$

Each serving is $\frac{1}{16}$ so we will divide the total number of gallons by each serving of gallon to find the total number of servings that can be made.

$\frac{\frac{3}{4} }{\frac{1}{16} }$

$= \frac{3}{4}$ × $\frac{16}{1}$

$=12$

Therefore, Jonna can make 12 servings.
