3/4 liter of water in a bottle. if you drink 1/2 of the water, how many liters did you drink

Lapatulllka [165]

For this case we have that initially the bottle contains $\frac {3} {4}$ of liter of water.

If a person drinks $\frac {1} {2}$ of the contents of the bottle we have:

$\frac {\frac {3} {4}} {2} =\\\frac {3 * 1} {4 * 2} =\\\frac {3} {8}$

Thus, the person drinks $\frac {3} {8}$ liters of water.

Answer:
