Question

There is 4/5 of a gallon of juice left. If each glass holds 1/10 of a gallon.how many glasses of juice are left

Answer 1

namely, how many times does 1/10 go into 4/5? well, is just their quotient.


`\bf \cfrac{\quad (4)/(5)\quad }{(1)/(10)}\implies \cfrac{4}{5}\cdot \cfrac{10}{1}\implies \cfrac{4}{1}\cdot \cfrac{2}{1}\implies 8`

Answer 2

There are 8 glasses of juices left. What you do is multiply or double the amount of juice. Then you simply find out how many 1/10 are in 8/10 which is eight.

Hope this helps :)
