Elise doesn't like sorbit, so she omits that ingredient and adds 5 percent to each of the other ingredients. How many cups of punch will she have if she uses 6 cups of orange juice?

20

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, to make the punch recipe, the following are needed:

Ginger Ale - 40%

Orange Juice - 25%

Pineapple juice - 20%

Sorbet - 15%

Since we are told that Elise doesn't like sorbit, so she omits that ingredient and adds 5 percent to each of the other ingredients. The the new percent will be:

Ginger Ale - 40% + 5% = 45%

Orange Juice - 25% + 5% = 30%

Pineapple juice - 20% + 5% = 25%

Sorbet - 15% - 15% = 0

To get the total cups of punch that'll be used, let it be represented by y. Therefore,

30% of y = 6

30/100 × y = 6

0.3 × y = 6

0.3y = 6

y = 6/0.3

y = 20

Therefore, she'll have 20 cups of punch.
