Question

Larry made 4 batches of punch. each batch uses 16 fluid ounces of lemon juice and 3 pints of orange juice. if each serving is 1 cup, how many servings did he make all together?

Answer 1

Answer: There are 32 servings that he make all together.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of fluid ounces of lemon juice = 16

Number of pints of orange juice = 3

1 pint = 16 fluid ounces

3 pints = 16 × 3 = 48 fluid ounces

So, Total fluid ounces = 48 +16 = 64 fluid ounces

if each serving is 1 cup.

So, it becomes,

1 cup = 8 fluid ounces

So, 1 fluid ounces = $\dfrac{1}{8}\ cups$

64 fluid ounces = $\dfrac{64}{8}\ cups=8\ cups$

Number of batches of punch = 4

So, Total number of servings he make all together would be

$8\times 4\\\\=32$

Hence, there are 32 servings that he make all together.

Answer 2

4 batches times 16 = 64 ounces /8 = 8 cups 8 oz in one cup
4 batches Times 3 pints = 12 pints times 2 cups per pint =24 cups
8 + 24 cups= 32 cups
