Question

Yosef has a measuring cup that holds

2 cups of liquid. To make fruit
punch, he needs 3.75 liters of orange
juice. Yosef knows that 2 cups equals
about 0.5 liters. How many cups of
orange juice does he need to make
the fruit punch?
A 4
B 4.75
C 7.5
D 15

Answer 1

D. 15

Explanation:

Given:

Number of cups for 0.5 liters of juice = 2

∴ Number of cups for 1 liter of juice =
`(2)/(0.5)=4`

Therefore, number of cups required for 3.75 liters of orange juice is given as:

`N=4* 3.75=15`

So, Yosef need 15 cups of orange juice to make the fruit punch.
