in the standard formulation of a flavored drink the ratio by volume of flavoring to corn syrup to water is 1 : 12 : 30 . in the sport formulation , the ratio of flavoring to corn syrup is 3 times as great as in the standard formulation , and the ratio of flavoring to water is half that of the standard formulation . if a large bottle of the sport formulation contains 2 ounces of corn syrup , how many ounces of water does it contain ?	Choose the correct answer:
A) 15  B) 30  C) 45  D) 60  E) 90

Rationale: standard : fl : corn s : water = 1 : 12 : 30 sport : fl : corn s : water = 3 : 12 : 180 this simplifies to 1 : 4 : 60 if the large bottle has a capacity of x ounces , then 4 x / 65 = 2 . so , x = 32.5 ounces . water = ( 60 / 65 ) * ( 65 / 2 ) = = 30 ounces . ans b
Answer: B
