Answer 2

12 times

Explanation:

Jesse is making a pitcher of fruit smoothies that contain 3 cups of orange juice.

Jesse measuring cup only holds 1/4 cup.

One time he can measure 1/4 of cup

Let us consider he measure n time of 1/4

Total measure of orange juice is
`(n)/(4)`

`(n)/(4)` must be equal to 3 cups of orange juice.

`(n)/(4)=3`

`n=12`

Hence, Jesse measures 12 times of cup.
