Answer:
bottles.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that you are filling bottles from 5 gallons of lemonade. We are asked to find the number of bottles each holding 3/8 of a gallon that can be filled from 5 gallons of lemonade.
To find the number of bottles, we will divide 5 by 3/8 as:
Convert to multiply problem by flipping the 2nd fraction:
Therefore, bottles of lemonade can be filled.
5 gallons and each bottle is 3/8
8 times 5 equals 40
sooo =(total parts of the gallon being cut into eighths) 40/8
Now count by 3's to try to get as close as 40 :
3/8= 1 bottle
6/8= 2 bottles
9/8= 3 bottles
12/8= 4 bottles
15/8= 5 bottles
18/8= 6 bottles
21/8= 7 bottles
24/8= 8 bottles
27/8= 9 bottles
30/8=10 bottles
33/8= 11 bottles
36/8=12 bottles
39/8= 13 bottles
Answer: 13 bottles can be filled with 1/8 being left over
