Question

Parker drank 36 fluid ounces of a sports drink at her basketball game. How many pints did she drink

Answer 1

2 1/4 pints

Explanation:

create a ratio with the fact there are 16 ounces in 1 cup

let 'p' = number of pints

16 = 36

1 p

cross-multiply: 16p = 36

p = 36/ 16, which is 9/ 4, or 2 1/4
