The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will find the concentration of sugar in the final mixture of the two juices. ### Step 1: Determine the concentration of sugar in each juice. - **Juice A (Guava Juice)**: - Guava concentration = 85% - Sugar concentration = 100% - 85% = 15% - **Juice B (Pomegranate Juice)**: - Pomegranate concentration = 90% - Sugar concentration = 100% - 90% = 10% ### Step 2: Understand the mixing ratio. - The juices are mixed in the ratio of 3:2. This means for every 3 parts of Juice A, there are 2 parts of Juice B. ### Step 3: Calculate the total parts of the mixture. - Total parts = 3 (from Juice A) + 2 (from Juice B) = 5 parts. ### Step 4: Calculate the total sugar from each juice based on the mixing ratio. - From Juice A: - Sugar from Juice A = 3 parts × 15% sugar = 3 × 15 = 45 units of sugar. - From Juice B: - Sugar from Juice B = 2 parts × 10% sugar = 2 × 10 = 20 units of sugar. ### Step 5: Calculate the total sugar in the mixture. - Total sugar = Sugar from Juice A + Sugar from Juice B = 45 + 20 = 65 units of sugar. ### Step 6: Calculate the concentration of sugar in the final mixture. - Concentration of sugar in the final mixture = (Total sugar / Total parts) × 100% - Concentration of sugar = (65 / 5) = 13% ### Final Answer: The concentration of sugar in the final mixture is **13%**. ---
