Answer 1

1.       The restaurant is making 22 ¾ cups of chowder. Each cup of chowder holds 7/8 of a cup.
Then the restaurant charges 2.95 dollars per bowl. Let’s find out how much money will the restaurant earned.
Solutions:
=> 22 ¾ = 22.75 cups of chowder
=> 7/8 = 0.88 cup of chowder it can holds.
Let’s solve to get the correct answer:
=> 22.75 / .88 = 25.85 cups in all.
Then, let’s multiply this with the amount
=> 25.85 * 2.95 = 76.26 dollars.
SO the restaurant earned 76.26 dollars for the chowder.
