To make lemonade, Carlos used 5 times more water than lemon juice. He used 3 pints of lemon juice. After making the lemonade, he poured it equally into 4 jugs. How many cups of lemonade are in each jug?

Respuesta :

Answer:

11 Cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Carlos used 3 pints of lemon juice and 5 times more water than lemon juice. So, he uses 3 x 5 = 15 pints of water for the lemonade. The amount of lemonade is 15 + 3 = 18 pints. Now he pours it equally into 4 jugs which makes it 18 ÷ 4 = 4.5 pints in each jug. Now 1 pint fills 2.4 cups which means 4.5 pints will fill 4.5 x 2.4 = 10.8 cups which will apprroximately be 11 cups.
