Question

A bird feeder hold 3/4 quarts of bird seed. Your scooper holds 3/8 cups of birdseed. How many scoops will fill the bird feeder

Answer 1

8 scoops will fill the bird feeder

Solution:

Given that,

A bird feeder hold 3/4 quarts of bird seed

Your scooper holds 3/8 cups of birdseed

We know that,

1 quart = 4 cups

Therefore,

$\frac{3}{4}\ quarts = \frac{3}{4} \times 4 = 3\ cups$

Thus,

A bird feeder hold 3 cups of  bird seed

Your scooper holds 3/8 cups of birdseed

How many scoops will fill the bird feeder

$3 \div \frac{3}{8}\\\\3 \times \frac{8}{3}\\\\8$

Thus, 8 scoops will fill the bird feeder
