Question

Jessie has a container that contains 18 3/4 cios of ice cream. How many 1/3-cup servings of ice cream are in the container

Answer 1

Hi there!

18 ×
`(3)/(4)` = amount of ice cream in container

13.5 = amount of ice cream in container

Let's replace the number of cups by "C" :

13.5 = C ×
`(1)/(3)`

Isoltate "C" by dividing each side of the equation by
`(1)/(3)`

40.5 = C

Which means that your answer is : There are 40.5 1/3-cup servings of ice creamin the container!

There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)
