Respuesta :

Answer:

35.64 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Total vinegar = 132 ounces

1[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] rice vinegar to 4 parts of cidar:

(1 1/2 = 1.5)

rice : cidar = 1.5 : 4

Rice vinegar part: [tex]\frac{1.5}{5.5}[/tex] = 0.27 (which is 27%)

Rice Vinegar needed:  27 percent of 132 ounces

[tex]\frac{1.5}{5.5}[/tex] × 132

= (0.27) × 132

= 35.64 ounces
