I promised I will not ponder things, but last night I had some sort of a conundrum.
I buy these Woolworths concentrated juice drink that should be diluted 1:4. The label states that the diluted product contains 50% fruit juice.
Now, I know that 80% of the diluted product is water, because 20% is the concentrate. Does that then mean that the concentrate contains more than 100% fruit juice? So if I take normal juice and halve it by evaporating water, I have 200% fruit juice? Can I assume that 50% of the concentrate is fruit juice and the rest other stuff like preservatives? If I then dilute 400ml concentrate with 600ml water do I have 100% fruit juice then?
So what percentage of the concentrate is pure fruit juice if the diluted product contains 50% fruit juice?
