Ahome health care assistant prepares 10 and a half ounces of formula the mixture is 1/3 formula and 2/3 water how much formula does she need to make 10 and 1/2 oz mixture how much water does she need to make 10 and a half ounce of mixture

Total amount of the mixture = ounces

Proportion of formula =

Proportion of water =

Amount of water needed to make the mixture can be given as:

Total amount of mixture x Proportion of water

Using the values, we get:

Amount of water needed = = 7 ounces

Similarly the amount of formula needed will be:
