    The correct answer is that Alisha need 3 ounces of milk and 15 ounces of brewed coffee.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Ounces of milk = x

    Ounces of brewed coffee = 5x (5 times greater than the number of ounces of milk)

    Formula:

    x + 5x = 18 (total of ounces of her favorite beverage)

    6x = 18

    x = 18/6

    x = 3

    5x = 15

    The number of ounces of milk needed by Alisha to make her favorite beverage is 3 and the number of ounces of brewed coffee is 15.
