Question

A water bottle that holds 24 1/2 ounces of water is 3/5 full. Is there enough water in the bottle to fill three glasses with 5 ounces each?

Answer 1

Answer:

No, there is not enough water.

Step-by-step explanation:

The water bottle holds 24.5  and there is 3/5 of it.

3/5 of 24.5 is 14.7 ounces

You want to fill three glasses with 5 ounces each. Multiply 3 x 5 which gives you 15.

14.7 is less than 15

Subtract 15 from 14.7 and you'll have a negative or not enough so no, it cannot fill three glasses with 5 each.

Answer 2

No there is not enough water
