Answer:

A 1.5 litre bottle of lemonade contains 0.4 litre of lemon juice

Step-by-step explanation

let x be the litre of lemon juice in 1.5 litre of lemonade

litre of lemon juice in 6 litre of lemonade = 1.6

so , [tex]\frac{6}{1.6} = \frac{1.5}{x}[/tex]

    x = [tex]\frac{1.5 * 1.6}{6}[/tex]

    x=[tex]\frac{2.4}{6}[/tex]

    x = 0.4 litre
