The answer is 137.5
How?
You must change 40% into a decimal by multiplying 100. ⇒ 0.40
Next, divide it. 55 ÷ 0.40.

55 ÷ 0.40= 137.5

He still needs 40 oz to drink.

40 (<em>less</em><em> </em><em>than</em><em> </em>or equal to sign) x

Step-by-step explanation:

*Find how many ounces in 8 cups

8 cups × 8 ounces = 64 ounces

**Figure out the sign

- it has to be equal to because his goal is to drink <em>at</em><em> </em><em>least</em><em> </em>64 oz.

- the sign has to also be greater than because he want to drink more than 64 if possible for him

***What goes on the other side of the sign?

- the 24 oz that he already drank plus the needed amount, let it be <em>x</em><em> </em>for unknown

<em>-</em><em> </em>the equation is 24 + unknown, or 24 + <em>x</em>

****Join all parts to get equation:

64 \leqslant 24 + x

*****isolate <em>x</em>

<em>-</em><em> </em>subtract 24 to both sides to cancel out the 24 on the side with <em>x</em>

******Answer to how many oz he still needs:

40 (less than or equal to sign) <em>x</em>

<em>Oops</em><em> </em><em>I</em><em> </em><em>had</em><em> </em><em>said</em><em> </em><em>it</em><em> </em><em>was</em><em> </em><em>greater</em><em> </em><em>than</em><em> </em><em>but</em><em> </em><em>it's less</em><em> </em><em>than</em><em> </em><em>because</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>x</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>supposed</em><em> </em><em>to</em><em> </em><em>be</em><em> </em><em>equal</em><em> </em><em>to</em><em> </em><em>or</em><em> </em><em>greater</em><em> </em><em>than</em><em> </em><em>4</em><em>0</em><em> </em><em>oz</em><em>.</em>
