A3.9 liters is your answer

Answer: First option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Quantity of fruit punch using only grape juice and carbonated water = 8.1 liters

Quantity of grape juice he used = 4.2 liters

So, the equation would be

\(4.2+c=8.1\)

where c is the number of liters of carbonated water used.

So, Amount of carbonated water is given by

\(c=8.1-4.2\\\\c=3.9\ liters\)

Hence, First option is correct.
