Question

Francine uses 2/3 cup of pineapple juice for every 1/3 cup of orange juice to make a smoothie.

what is the number of cups of pineapple juice Francine uses for 1 cup of orange juice.

Answer 1

2

Explanation:

For every 1/3 cup of orange juice, she uses 2/3 cups

You are solving for 1 cup. To solve, multiply 3/1 to both fractions.

(1/3)(3/1) = 3/3 = 1

(2/3)(3/1) = 6/3 = 2

For every 1 cup of orange juice, 2 cups of pineapple juice is used.
