To determine the fraction of the cool drink that is orange juice, we start with the concentrate. The concentrate contains \( 40\% \) orange juice, so in \( 50 \, \text{ml} \) of concentrate, the amount of orange juice is: \[ 0.40 \times 50 \, \text{ml} = 20 \, \text{ml} \] When this \( 50 \, \text{ml} \) of concentrate is diluted with \( 200 \, \text{ml} \) of water, the total volume of the drink becomes: \[ 50 \, \text{ml} + 200 \, \text{ml} = 250 \, \text{ml} \] The total volume of the drink is \( 250 \, \text{ml} \) and contains \( 20 \, \text{ml} \) of orange juice. To find the fraction of the drink that is orange juice, we divide the volume of orange juice by the total volume of the drink: \[ \text{Fraction of orange juice} = \frac{20 \, \text{ml}}{250 \, \text{ml}} = \frac{20}{250} = \frac{2}{25} \] Thus, the fraction of the drink that is orange juice is \( \frac{2}{25} \).
