Well, you didnt exactly give me enough information to do the problem, but here it goes;
0.125 is a decimal, and as a fraction it converts to 1/8. Therefore, depending on the original unit, it could be 1/8 of a cup.
D = 14
1/6d + 2/3 = 1/4d - 1/2
2d + 4*2 = 3d - 6
2d - 3d = -6-8
-d = -14
d = 14
You are permitted to give up to $13,000 each year to any individual
without acquiring gift tax liability. So, Barry and Mary each can gift $13,000
to anyone of their choosing. For eight recipients (3 children and 5
grandchildren), each can gift $104,000. Consequently, Barry and Mary can offer
$208,000 ($104,000 x 2) to their children and grandchildren in 2013.
