Maddy is carrying a 555 liter jug of sports drink that weighs 7.5\text{ kg}7.5 kg7, point, 5, start text, space, k, g, end text. She wants to know how many kilograms a 222 liter jug of sports drink would weigh (w)left parenthesis, w, right parenthesis. She assumes the relationship between volume and weight is proportional. What is the weight of the 2 liter jug?

w/2 = 7.5/5

3kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Remaining question below:

Which proportion could Maddy use to model this situation?

a. w/2 = 7.5/5

b. w/7.5 = 5/2

Solve the proportion to determine the weight of a 2 liter jug.

kg

5 liters jug of sport drink weighs 7.5kg

2 liters jug of sport drink will weigh x kg

Find w

Ratio of weight to volume

7.5kg : 5liters=7.5/5

wkg : 2 liters=w/2

Equates the ratio

7.5 / 5 = w / 2

Cross product

7.5*2=5*w

15=5w

Divide both sides by 5

3=w

w=3kg

Therefore, weight of the 2liters jug of sport drink is 3kg
