Answer:

(5/6) cup carbonated water

Step-by-step explanation:

We can easily solve this problem by applying a rule of three.

4 cups of orange juice    ------------------------  2/3 cup carbonated water

5 cups of orange juice    ------------------------  x

x = (5/4)*2/3 cup carbonated water

x = (10/12) cup carbonated water

x = (5/6) cup carbonated water

x = 0.8333 cup carbonated water
