Question

A juice container can hold 96 ounces. The container has 72 ounces of juice. What percentage is not in the container.

Answer 1

Answer:

25% of the juice is not in the container.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Total juice container can hold = 96 ounces

Amount of juice in container = 72 ounces

Amount of juice not in container =

$96-72=24\text{ ounces}$

We have to find the percentage of juice not in the container.

Percentage =

$=\dfrac{\text{Amount of juice not in container}}{\text{Total amount the container can hold}}\times 100\5\\\\=\dfrac{24}{96}\times 100\%\\\\=25\%$

Thus, 25% of the juice is not in the container.
