How many 5 1/4 ounce glasses can be completely filled from a 33 1/2 ounce container of juice?

1 answer:

5 0

You need to perform a division.
We are dividing the mixed number 33 1/2 by the mixed number 5 1/4.

(33 1/2) / (5 1/4) =

To begin, convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions.
33 1/2 becomes 67/2, while 5 1/4 becomes 21/4

= (67/2) / (21/4)

Now, we divide the fraction 67/2 by the fraction 21/4.
To divide one fraction by another, we write the first fraction as is, change division to multiplication, and take the reciprocal of the second fraction. Hence, to divide 67/2 by 21/4, we multiply 67/2 by 4/21.

= 67/2 * 4/21

When multiplying fractions, we multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. So, 67 * 4 = 268 and 2 * 21 = 42

= 268/42

Using a calculator, 268/42 equals approximately 6.38095...

You can fill 6 full glasses.
