Question 1107463: you need 20 gallons of juice for you family reunion. how many gallons of sugar do you need? ( the juice recipe 8 parts water-1 part sugar-1 part flavoring) Answer by Theo(13342) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! the juice recipe says that you mix 8 parts of water with 1 part of sugar and part of flavoring.
add up the parts and that totals 10 parts.
divide 20 gallons by 10 and you get 2 gallons for each part.
that means 8 * 2 = 16 gallons of water plus 1 * 2 = 2 gallons of sugar plus 1 * 2 = 2 gallons of flavoring.
you get 16 gallons of water plus 2 gallons of sugar plus 2 gallons of flavoring for a total of 20 gallons of juice.
your solution is that you need 2 gallons of sugar.
