Question: A recipe requires 135.00 liters of syrup for every 95.6 liters of juice. How many liters of syrup are needed if 1,920.0 liters of juice are used?
(A) 2,615.00 liters
(B) 2,615.20 liters
(C) 2,615.50 liters
(D) 2,616.00 liters
Solution:
Use a proportion to determine the amount of syrup needed:
135.00/95.6 = x/1,920.0
Solve for x:
x = 135.00×1,920.0/95.6 =2,615.20
So, 2,615.20 liters of syrup are needed.
