Answer:

2.1 standard drinks

(or 2 if you need to round to the nearest whole number)

Step-by-step explanation:

The ABV (alcohol by volume) percentage is a measure of the amount of pure alcohol (as a percentage) of the total volume of liquid in a drink.

So for 16% wine, this means that 16% of the volume of the wine is pure alcohol.

Therefore, if 16% of 8 fl oz is pure alcohol, this means that 1.28 fl oz of the 8 fl oz is pure alcohol (since 0.16 × 8 = 1.28).

One standard drink ≈ 0.6 fl oz pure alcohol

To calculate the number of standard drinks, divide the total amount of pure alcohol found by the amount in one standard drink:

1.28 ÷ 0.6 = 2.1

Therefore there is approximately 2.1 standard drinks in 8 fl oz of 16% wine.
