Question

(17 Leon uses 3/4 cup water to make a serving of iced tea.

Answer 1

Answer:

A.) 12 3/4 cups

B.) 117 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

If one serving of ice tea contains 3/4 cup of water, how much does 7 serving have?

To answer this, you must multiply 3/4 and 17

17 is the same as 17/1, so multiply the numerators and denominators

17 x 3 = 51

1 x 4 = 4

51/4 = 12 3/4

So, Leon used 51/4 or 12 3/4 cups of water

Part B

If the cooler has 88 servings of tea, how many cups of water does it have?

To solve this, divide 88 by 3/4

Dividing 88 by 3/4 is the same as multiplying 88 by 4/3.

Again, 88 is the same as 88/1 so multiply the numerators and the denominators.

88 x 4 = 352

1 x 3 = 3

352/3 = 117 1/3

So, there are 352/3 or 117 1/3 cups of water in the cooler

I hope this helps!
