Proof in explanation.
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm going to attempt this by squeeze theorem.
We know that
is a variable number between -1 and 1 (inclusive).
This means that
.
for all value
. So if we multiply all sides of our inequality by this, it will not effect the direction of the inequalities.

By squeeze theorem, if 
and
, then we can also conclude that
.
So we can actually evaluate the "if" limits pretty easily since both are continuous and exist at
.

.
We can finally conclude that
by squeeze theorem.
Some people call this sandwich theorem.
First, let's find the least common denominator, or LCD of both of them. of the two fractions.
7 and 3 both go into 21.
Now, multiply the two fractions to get the LCD. Remember, whatever you do to the bottom you must do to the top.
2/7 * 3/3 = 6/21 quart
Michael drank 6/21 quart of milk.
1/3 * 7/7 = 7/21 quart
Joel drank 7/21 quart of milk.
Add together 7/21 and 6/21 to get 13/21, the total amount of milk they both drank from the quart.
Now, subtract 13 from 21 to find how many quarts are left. Simplify if necessary.
21 - 13 = 8/21 quart
Since you can't simplify, there is 8/21 quart of milk left.
