The recipe for one glass is given:
$○$ $\frac{1}{2}$lemon
$○$ 2 teaspoons of sugar (10 g)
$○$ 1 glass of water (250 ml)
$○$ 4 cubes of ice
How much of each item will be needed to prepare 8 glasses of lemonade (write measures) ?

Answer 1

Given: for 1 glass of lemonade $\frac{1}{2}$lemon required
$\therefore$ To prepare 8 glasses no. of lemons = $8\times \frac{1}{2}=4$
For 1 glass of lemonade 2 teaspoons of sugar (10 g) required
$\therefore$ To prepare 8 glasses no. of teaspoons of sugar = $8\times 2=16(8\times 10g=80g)$
For 1 glass of lemonade 1 glass of water (250 ml) required
$\therefore$ To prepare 8 glasses of lemonade no. of glasses of water = $8\times 1$=$8(8\times 250ml=2000ml)$
For 1 glass of lemonade 4 cubes of ice required
$\therefore$ To prepare 8 glasses of lemonade no. of cubes of ice = $8\times 4=32$
So, for the making of 8 glasses of lemonade required materials are:
$○$ 4 lemons
$○$ 16 teaspoons of sugar (80 g)
$○$ 8 glasses of water (2000 ml)
$○$ 32 cubes of ice
