Answer:

the answer is  

Step-by-step explanation:

The proportion of coconut milk in the cocktail is  ml for every 15 ml of orange juice.

Proportion shows the fractional composition of a given quantity or substance.

So that:

orange juice = 15 ml

contents of the orange juice;

apple juice = 25 ml

coconut milk = 10 ml

total              = 35 ml

So that;

the fraction of apple juice in the orange juice =  x 15

                                          =

the fraction of apple juice in the orange juice =  ml

Also,

the fraction of coconut juice in the orange juice =  x 15

                                        =

the fraction of coconut juice in the orange juice =  ml

Therefore, the proportion of the cocktail that is coconut milk is: for every 15 ml of orange juice, then  ml of coconut juice is required.
