Answer 1

18 number of glasses of lemonade can she pour

Explanation:

Unit rate defined as rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 3 feet per second or 8 miles per hour, they are called unit rates.

As per the statement: Rita has 3/4 gallon of lemonade she pours 1/24 gallon of lemonade into each glass.

Number of lemonade Rita has = 3/4 gallon

`\text{Unit rate per glass} = (1)/(24) \text{gallons}`

By definition of unit rate;

`\text{Number of glasses} = \frac{\text{Number of lemonade}}{\text{Unit rate per glass}}`

Substitute the given values we get;

`\text{Number of glasses} = ((3)/(4))/((1)/(24))`

`\text{Number of glasses} = (3)/(4) * 24 = 3 * 6 = 18`

Therefore, number of glasses of lemonade can she pour is, 18
