MathPhys

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Charla uses 2 cups of mix per 6 cups of water.

2/6 = 1/3

Rae uses 3 cups of mix per 7 cups of water.

3/7

To compare these fractions, we need to find the common denominator.  In this case, it's 21.

1/3 = 7/21

3/7 = 9/21

9/21 is greater than 7/21, so Rae's lemonade will taste stronger.
