Wes mixed different juices to make fruit punch. He filled one-half of the punch bowl with orange juice. Then he filled half of the remaining space with grape juice. Finally, he filled the rest of the punch bowl with 3 0 0 mL 300 mL of cherry juice. How many liters of fruit punch did Wes make?

Hi there!

We can split this up into fractions. 300 mL is 1/4, or 25% of the punch bowl. I know this because half (50%) was filled with orange juice and half of the half was filled with grape juice (25% is half of 50%).

If 300 mL is 1/4, then we can multiply 300 × 4 to get 1,200 mL of fruit punch that Wes made.

Sounds tasty, ask Wes to save me some, lol ;)
