Elise does not like sorbet, so she omits that ingredient and adds 5 percent of each of the other ingredients. how many cups of punch will she have if she uses 6 cups orange juice?

20 cups of punch

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

If Elise adds 5 percent of each of the other ingredients

then

the new percentages are

Ginger Ale=40%+5%=45%

Orange Juice=25%+5%=30%

Pineapple Juice=20%+5%=25%

Sorbet=0%

Find out how many cups of punch will she have if she uses 6 cups of orange juice, using proportion

Let

x ----> the total cups of punch

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

4x - 6 + 6 = 4x - 6 + 6

4x = 4x

x = x
