Answer:

Alyssa’s lemonade recipe

Step-by-step explanation:

→ Work out how much lemons is needed per gallon for Alyssa’s lemonade recipe

9 lemons = 2.5 gallons

(÷ 2.5)      =     (÷ 2.5)

3.6 lemons = 1 gallon

→ Work out how much lemons is needed per gallon for Brian’s lemonade recipe

12 lemons = 4 gallons of water

(÷ 4)            =    (÷ 4)

3 lemons = 1 gallon of water

→ Now compare

Alyssa’s lemonade recipe ⇒ 3.6 lemons = 1 gallon

Brian’s lemonade recipe ⇒ 3 lemons = 1 gallon of water
