Question

Sara poured 5/8 of the juice from a 2-gallon jug while serving guests at a party. How much juice, in gallons, is still left in the bottle?

Answer 1

It’s important to remember we are looking for the remaining amount. We start by finding the remaining fraction, in this case it is 1 - 5/8 = 3/8.
To find the amount of juice left in gallons, we can multiply this fraction by the amount of gallons Sara had originally. I hope this helps and if you need anything else please let me know.
