let concentrate be c and water be W
given C/W =1/3.
total reqd juice = 6*200 ounce = 1200ounce ( 200 6 ounce is just a red herring )
out of this we know that there will be both water and concentrate.
how much??
of course 1/4 concentrate and 3/4 water [1:3 given]
so in the end, we have 1/4*1200=300 ounce of concentrate
now we know that 1 can has 12 ounce.
so no. of cans = 300/12=25 nos of 12ounce cans
given C/W =1/3.

blover,
the catch here is that 200 servings are of 6 ounce each. For calculation purpose, I can convert it into 100 servings of 12 ounce each. This will require 1/4th of concentrate. Hence, 25 cans of concentrate.
