David uses 1/4 cup of apple juice for every 1/2 cup of carrot juice to make a fruit drink . Enter the number of cups of apple juice David uses for 1 cup of carrot juice. HELP ME PLSSS

1/2 cup

Step-by-step explanation:

1 cup is equal to 2 1/2 so that means you use 2 times 1/4 which is 2/4 cups which is equal to 1/2

1/2 cup of apple juice

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi,

1/4 cup of apple juice = 1/2 cup of carrot juice

We're trying to find the number of cups of apple juice when the carrot juice is equal to a whole cup. To do this, we have to get 1/2 to a whole number. Simply multiply 1/2 by 2 to get a whole number. Here's what I mean...

1/4 cup of apple juice = 1/2 cup of carrot juice

1/2 x 2 = 1 (whole number)

So, when we have a whole cup of carrot juice we have...

1/4 x 2 (since we multiplied the 1/2 by 2, we have to do the same to the other side).

1/4 x 2 = 1/2

David will use 1/2 cup of apple juice when he makes a cup of carrot juice.

Hope this helps :)
