Answer 6

hmm i don't know if i did it correct but i'll try to explain
i made 2 sides to the equation
left side - is where we make equation to find for X- which is how many liters of Lemon juice is there and right side - we sum up X with remaining 1 liter of water

Answer 7

Okay So How Would It Look @Somy :)

Answer 8

okay im not too sure but i made it this way
40X - 60 = 1 + X

here we find X for liters of lemon juice

Answer 9

Okay :) They Make These Questions So Hard :( Its Frustrating

Answer 10

but that i just used math logic depending on my final wanted answer
coz i want X to be equal to = 60/40 coz it leads me directly to answer for liters of juice
and the other side i just decided to do addition part to give the total liters as they wanted
