Drink #B# will have stronger juice flavour.

In first drink #A# we have two cans of concentrate and five cans of water i.e. total #7# cans.

and hence the ratio of concentrate is #2/7#

In second drink #B#, we have #500# #ml# of concentrate and #1# #L# of water i.e. #1000# #ml# of water and a total of #1500# #ml#

and hence the raatio of concentrate is #500/1500=1/3#

Now to compare them, we should bring them both to same denominator

As #2/7=(2xx3)/(7xx3)=6/21#

and #1/3=(1xx7)/(3xx7)=7/21#

Hence, it isapparent that for every #21# units of drink

while in #A#, we have #6# units of concentrate

in #B#, we have #7# units of concentrate.

Hence drink #B# will have stronger juice flavour.
