A recipe calls for 3 cups of orange juice for every 4 cups of fruit punch. If a person makes a large batch of this recipe, how many cups of fruit punch will be needed if 12 cups of orange juice are used? Create a ratio table to solve.

The ratio for the cups of orange juice for every cup of fruit punch is 3:4.

Since now the cups of orange juice ratio has been altered, the cups of fruit punch ratio needs to be equally altered as well.

12/3 = 4

4(4) = 16

Now that they are equally altered, the new ratio would be 12:16
