Question

Elena drank 3 liters of water yesterday. Jada drank 3/4 times as much water as much water as Elena. Lin drank twice as much water as Jada. Did jada drink more or less water than Elena?

Answer 1

Answer:

Jada drank less water than Elina.

Step-by-step explanation:

Water drunk by Elina = 3 liters

Jada drank the water $\frac{3}{4}$ times as much as water as Elina.

Therefore, water drunk by Jada = $\frac{3}{4}\times 3$

                                                     = $\frac{9}{4}$

                                                     = 2.25 liters

Lin drank water twice as much as Jada.

Therefore, Lin drank the amount of water = 2 × 2.25

                                                                   = 4.5 liters

Since Jada drank 2.25 liters of water and Elina drank 3 liters

Therefore, Jada drank less water than Elina.
