Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
= ( lemon concentrate ) / ( water )
= ( lemon concentrate ) / ( 1 cup of lemonade )
= ( lemon concentrate ) / ( 1 cup of lemonade )

I think this means that 3 cups of concentrate are needed to
make 12 cups of lemonade. I don't know how many "cans"
are in a cup, so that has me confused.
You might get another opinion.
