Hey there!
To solve this problem, you first would need to solve for how much of the cake is left after Jasmine, her friend, and Jasmine's brother got their slices. Then, you would need to split the remaining amount in half to get the answer of what each parent ate. We would need to make all of the denominators the same, so let's make all of the fractions out of 12, a common denominator of 3 and 4.



It can then be concluded that each parent ate

of the cake, since there was

remaining.
You can check this answer by adding up all of the parts we used in this problem:

Hope this helped you out! :-)
Answer: 3rd brand.
Step-by-step explanation:
1st brand:
6 oz cost $1.25
The amount per ounce will be:
= $1.25/6
= $0.21
2nd brand:
8 oz cost $1.33
The amount per ounce will be:
= $1.33/8
= $0.17
3rd brand:
12 oz cost $1.50
The amount per ounce will be:
= $1.50/12
= $0.125
4th brand:
16 oz cost $2.10
The amount per ounce will be:
= $2.10/16
= $0.13
From the calculation, the 3rd brand of orange juice is the better but as it's cheaper than others.
The formula for calculating area of parallelogram is given as:
Area = base x height
So, here in this question,
Base = 3. 5 units
Height = 2 units
Area = 3.5 x 2
= 7 unit^2
The 3 is in the ones place because it is on one right of the decimal point.
