Question

Lin's goal is to drink 8 cups of water every day.She drank 37 ounces before lunch today.How much more water does Lin need to drink today to reach her goals

Answer 1

Lin needs to drink 27 ounces of water to reach her goal.

Explanation:

1 cup = 8 fluid ounces.

8 cups =
`8*8=64` ounces.

As of now Lin has drank 37 ounces of water. So, this means till now she has drank
`(37)/(8)= 4.625` cups of water.

In terms of ounces, she needs to drink 64-37=27 ounces of water to reach her goal.

Hence, the answer is 27 ounces or 8-4.625=3.375 cups.
