Answer:
12 servings.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been Joanna mixed 1/4 gallon of orange juice and 1/2 gallon of pineapple juice to make punch.
First of all, we will find amount of punch by adding amount of orange juice and pineapple juice as:
[tex]\text{Amount of punch}=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Make a common denominator:
[tex]\text{Amount of punch}=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1*2}{2*2}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Amount of punch}=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{2}{4}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Amount of punch}=\frac{1+2}{4}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Amount of punch}=\frac{3}{4}[/tex]
Now, we will divide total amount of punch by amount of each serving to find number of servings.
[tex]\text{Number of servings}=\frac{3}{4}\div \frac{1}{16}[/tex]
Convert to multiplication problem by flipping the 2nd fraction:
[tex]\text{Number of servings}=\frac{3}{4}\times \frac{16}{1}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Number of servings}=3\times 4[/tex]
[tex]\text{Number of servings}=12[/tex]
Therefore, Jonna can make 12 servings of punch shake.
