In a fruit cocktail, for every 30 ml of orange juice you need 20 ml of apple juice and 50 ml of coconut milk. What proportion of the cocktail is apple juice? Give your answer as a fraction in its simplest form.

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Quantity of orange juice = 30 ml

Quantity of apple juice = 20 ml

Quantity of coconut juice = 50 ml

Total quantity of cocktail = 100 ml

So, the ratio of orange juice to apple juice to coconut juice is given by

=30:20:50

= 3:2:5

Total ratio=3+2+5

=10

So, proportion of the cocktail of apple juice is given by

2/10×100

=1/5×100

=20%

Hence, the proportion of the cocktail is 1/5 apple juice
