6. Alima made bubble tea using milk, tea and pearls in the ratio of 4:3:1. If the total weight of the bubble tea made is 1560 g, find the weight of each ingredient used?

Milk, tea and pearls in the ratio of 4:3:1 -> The milk = 4x, tea = 3x and pearls = x

So, 1560g is equal to 4x + 3x + x = 8x

x = 1560 / 8 = 195
3x = 195 x 3 = 585
4x = 195 x 4 = 780

So, she used 780g of milk, 585g of tea and 195g of pearls.

Milk= 780g

Tea= 585g

Pearls= 195g

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that all together there is 1560g. So what we do is add the ratio numbers together which is 4+3+1. This gives us 8. Next, what we can do is how much is 1 (ratio). So we do 1560g/8. This gives us 195g. Now the last step is to multiply 195g with each ratio number given. So milk is represented as 4. So therefore milk would be 4 multiplied by 195g. This means milk= 780g. Tea = 3 multiplied by 195g. Thus, this gives us 585g. The last one which is pearls is 195g as it is multiplied by 1. To check the answer, you can add the three numbers which are 780g+ 585g+195g= 1560g.
