Answer:

Because when you divide 25 by 8, the result is greater than 3 i.e. 3.125 > 3

Explanation:

Given : 25 fluid ounces

3 cups

To Find: why is a capacity of 25 fluid ounces more than a capacity of 3 cups.

Solution :

1 cup = 8 fluid ounces

So, 25 fluid ounce =
(25)/(8)

=
3.125

So, 25 fluid ounces means 3.125 cups

So, the total capacity of 3.125 cups must be more than capacity of 3 cups.

Thus a capacity of 25 fluid ounces more than a capacity of 3 cups because when you divide 25 by 8, the result is greater than 3 i.e. 3.125 > 3
