Answer by Theo(13342)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! welch = 3 parts grape and 5 parts water
other = 2 parts grape and 3 parts water
welch grape fraction is 3/8
other grape fraction is 2/5
welch grape percent is 3/8 = .375 * 100% = 37l5%
other grape percent is 2/5 = .4 = 40%
for more grape flavor, she should use other.
you are correct.
