Answer 1

Answer:

54 smoothies

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question, we were told that Nicole has 81/2 cups of yogurt to make smoothies. Each smoothie uses 3/4 cup of yogurt. What is the maximum number of smoothies that Nicole can make with the yogurt?

From the above,we are aware that Nicole has 40 and a half cups of yoghurt and if it requires 3/4 of each cup to make her smoothies,then the total number of smoothies that can be prepared by Nicole will be

Note that 80 1/2 is the same as 40.5 and 3/4 is same as 0.75

X = 40.5/0.75

X = 54 smoothies

Answer 2

Answer:

With that amount of yougurt she can make 54 smoothies.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate how many smoothies Nicole can make with the amount of yogurt she has we need to take the total amount of yogurt and divide it by the amount used in each smoothie. So we have:

total yorgut = 81/2 cups

each smoothie = 3/4 cup

number of smoothies = (81/2)/(3/4) = (81/2)*(4/3)

number of smoothies = 27*2 = 54 smoothies

With that amount of yougurt she can make 54 smoothies.
