A pitcher of fruit punch includes 150 ml of orange juice. More orange juice is added to the fruit punch equal to 10% of the initial amount of fruit punch.

Write an equation that could be used to find the initial amount of fruit punch if the new amount of orange juice is 200 ml.

If we have 150 ml of orange juice, then add 10% of the initial total to get 200 ml of orange juice, we can use this equation, 10(because 100%/10% = 10)*x(added orange juice) = y(initial amount of punch) we can solve this equation to get that there were originally 500 ml of punch.
