72 ml of orange juice you need 56 ml of apple juice and 120 ml of coconut milk

this means the ratio is in the form:

apple juice : coconut milk :orange juice

this becomes ;

56 :  120: 72

the number 8 is common in all 3 . hence divide each number by 8

[tex]\frac{56}{8} : \frac{120}{8}: \frac{72}{8}[/tex]

this becomes:

7  : 15 : 9  

the simplified ratio is 7  : 15 : 9
