Question

Liam's bottle had 2 1/2 cups of juice in it. He drank 1/3 of the juice in his bottle. How many cups of juice did Liam drink?

Answer 1

You basically have to do 2 1/2 times 1/3....


$2 \frac{1}{2} * \frac{1}{3} = \frac{5}{2} * \frac{1}{3} = \frac{5*1}{2*3} = \frac{5}{6} \ \textless \ -answer$

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{5}{6}$ cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Liam's bottle had $2\frac{1}{2}$ cups of juice in it.

He drank $\frac{1}{3}$ of the juice in his bottle.

So he drank the amount of juice = $\frac{5}{2}$ × $\frac{1}{3}$ cups

                                                      = $\frac{5}{6}$ cups

Liam drank Juice  $\frac{5}{6}$ cups
