Ten parts to one means that for every ten parts of one item (say water) there is one part of another item (say juice). The ratio of juice to water is 1:10. So if there's 128 oz of juice than the ratio of juice to water is also 128:x where x is the value in ounces of water in the solution. Now we cross multiply (multiply the corners of the fraction). This leads to 1 * x = 12 * 128. So now we can see that x = 1280. So if there are 128 ounces of juice in the mixture then there are 1280 ounces of water in the mixture. Note: Water and juice are arbitrarily chosen items used to help explain the concept.
