The patient can have 204.8 ounce cups of coffee every day.
Step-by-step explanation:
Initial consumption limit of the coffee by the patient- 512-ounce cups
Doctor recommendation-60% cut back in the coffee consumption
Thus according to the doctor's recommendation, if the patient needs to cut back 60% of the coffee consumption, then he is only to consume remaining (100-60)= 40% of his daily consumption.
Total daily consumption he can take= 40% of initial consumption
= (40/100) *512 ounces
= 204.8 ounces of coffee
Hence, the patient needs to take only 204.8 ounces of coffee complying by the Doctor’s recommendation.
