A restaurant owner was experimenting with the taste of her homestyle lemon drink. She started with 60 litres of water. She removed 15 litres of the water and replaced it with 15 litres of pure lemon juice. After thoroughly stirring the new mixture, she discovered that it was too “lemony”. So she removed 10 litres of the new mixture and replaced it with 10 litres of water. She thoroughly stirred the mixture and concluded that the new mixture was just right.
Determine the ratio of pure lemon juice to water in the final 60 litre mixture.

ratio of pure lemon juice to water in the homestyle lemon  drink is 5 : 19.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve the final ratio of lemon juice to water, let us start by determining the initial ratio of pure lemon juice to water in the first mix. This is done as follows:

Total volume of mixture = 60 liters

initial volume of water = 60 liters

initial volume of lemon juice = 0 liters

1) She removed 15 liters of the water and replaced it with 15 liters of pure lemon juice.

Volume of water = 60 - 15 = 45 liters

Volume of lemon juice = 15 liters

2) She removed 10 liters of the new mixture

Let us convert this amount removed into ratio:

New volumes of water and lemon juice after removing the 10 liters of mixture is calculated as follows:

3) and replaced it with 10 liters of water.

The final ratio of lemon juice to water:

Therefore, the final ratio of pure lemon juice to water in the homestyle lemon  drink is 5 : 19.
