Question

Mags has 2 1/4 pints of milk in the refrigerator. She likes to have 1/4 pint with her oatmeal in the morning. How many bowls of oatmeal can Mags have before she runs out of milk?

Answer 1

she can have 9 bowls of oatmeal.

Answer 2

Hi there! The answer is 9

To find our answer, we have to divide the total amount of milk by the daily used amount of milk.

`2 (1)/(4) / (1)/(4) = (9)/(4) / (1)/(4) = (9)/(4) * (4)/(1) = (36)/(4) = 9`

Therefore, Mags can have 9 bowls of oatmeal before she runs out of milk.
