Answer:
The two beverages can be (iced tea,fruit juice) or (iced tea,soda).
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Beverages iced tea [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex], fruit juice [tex]\frac{2}{8}[/tex], water [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex], soda [tex]\frac{2}{8}[/tex].
To find : Which two beverages have a sum of [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] of the students votes ?
Solution :
We have to get the two beverages whose sum became [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] .
The possible ways are
1) Iced tea + Fruit juice = [tex]\frac{3}{8}+\frac{2}{8}[/tex]
Iced tea + Fruit juice = [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex]
2) Iced tea + Soda = [tex]\frac{3}{8}+\frac{2}{8}[/tex]
Iced tea + Soda = [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex]
Therefore, the two beverages can be (iced tea,fruit juice) or (iced tea,soda).
