Question

the lines on a 2 cup liquid measuring cup divide each cup into eighths. if you measure 1 3/4 cups of water, between which 2 quantities can you be certain that your exact measurement will be?​

Answer 1

Answer:

13 th and 14 th

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the line divides the cup into one - eighth

Thus a measurement of 1 3/4

The number of 1/8th's obtainable from 1 3/4 :

1 3/4 = 7/4

7/4 divided by 1/8th

7/4 ÷ 1/8

7/4 × 8/1

= 56/4 = 14

14 gives the upper limit of the line starting from the bottom, Therefore, a measurement of 1 3/4 should be between the 13 th and 14 th line. Since the bottom of the cup will have no line.
