Carly purchased 9 1/2 pints of ice cream for a party. If each guest will be served exactly 3/5 pint of ice cream, what is the greatest number of gusts that Carly can serve
Answer:
15 guests
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Total pints of icecream = 9 1/2
Fraction of ice cream pints per guest = 3/5 pints
Number of guest that can be served :
Total pints / fraction per guest
9 1/2 ÷ 3/5
19/2 * 5/3
95 / 6
= 15.8 guest
Hence, greatest Number of guest that can be served = 15
