Jaylin is making lemonade using 3/4 cup of water for every 1/5 cup of lemon juice. Wanda is making lemonade also and she uses 2/3 cup of water for every 1/6 cup of lemon juice. What is the unit rate of water per lemon juice (cups) for each? Whose lemonade has a weaker lemon flavor? Explain

Given :

Jaylin is making lemonade using 3/4 cup of water for every 1/5 cup of lemon juice.

Wanda is making lemonade also and she uses 2/3 cup of water for every 1/6 cup of lemon juice.

To Find :

The unit rate of water per lemon juice (cups) for each.

Whose lemonade has a weaker lemon flavor.

Solution :

Case 1 :

Jaylin use 1/5 cup pf lemon juice in 3/4 cup of water.

So, 1 cup will require cups of water.

Case 2 :

Wanda use 1/6 cup of lemon juice in 2/3 cup of water.

1 cup will require = cups of water.

Therefore, unit rate of water per lemon juice (cups) for each is 15/4 and 2/3 for Jaylin and Wanda respectively.

Jaylin lemon has weaker flavour because of more water per cup of lemon juice.

Hence, this is the required solution.
