Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:Numbers of pitchers of lemonade = 8Step-by-step explanation:Given asAmount of lemonade concentration = [tex]\frac{4}{6}[/tex] of a cupNow,  [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] of a cup of concentration mix with  [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] of waterSo,  [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] -  [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] =  [tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex] of cup of lemonade,∴ The number of small pitcher of lemonade =  [tex](\frac{4}{6} /\frac{1}{12} )[/tex]                                                                          =  4 × 2 = 8    Answer
