This is a ratio proportion question.

The ratio of concentrate to water in one glass of orange juice is 1:3.

Therefore with 12 ounces of concentrate one can make 48 ounces or 8 glasses of orange juice.

Therefore for 200 glasses of orange juice you need = 200*12/8 ounces of concentrate.

You need 300 ounces of concentrate. Each can of concentrate is of 12 ounces each.

Therefore you need 300/12 = 25 cans of concentrate.

Whats the OA?

C 1 25 25

W 3 25 75
------------------------------------------------
Total 4 25 100 glasses 12 ounce=200 glasses of 6 ounce

Hence 25 is the answer.
I can not understand
from where these glasses are coming into picture?
