Answer 1

Answer:

(B)72 fluid ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert cups to fluid ounces, Sari wrote the equivalent ratios.

$\dfrac{8 \text{ fluid ounces}}{1\text{ cup}} =\dfrac{\text{? fluid ounces}}{9\text{ cups}}$

Let the question mark be represented by x.

We then have:

$\dfrac{8 \text{ fluid ounces}}{1\text{ cup}} =\dfrac{\text{x fluid ounces}}{9\text{ cups}}\\ Cross multiply\\x \times 1 = 8 \times 9\\x=72 fluid ounces$

We conclude that there are 72 fluid ounces in 9 cups.
