Question

A packing machine wastes 0.17 liters of fruit punch for every case of 36 juice boxes that it fills. if each juice box contains 0.12 liters how many liters of fruit punch is packaged per liter of fruit punch wasted?

Answer 1

Alright, lets get started.

1 juice box contains 0.12 liters juice.

So 36 juice boxes contain =
`36*0.12 = 4.32` liters juice.

Packing machine wastes 0.17 liters while packing = 36 jiuce boxes, it means

Packing machine wastes 0.17 liters while packing = 4.32 liters juice

So, packing machine wastes 1 liter while packing =
`(4.32)/(0.17)  = 25.41` liters

It means 25.41 liters of fruit punch is packaged per liter of fruit punch wasted : Answer
