Isabel is making lemonade for a party with 12 guests. She wants to make equal servings that are at least 2 cups each. She makes 7 quarts of lemonade. Does she have enough lemonade for east guest?

1 quart = 4 cups
7 quarts = 28 cups

1 guest needs 2 cups
12 guests need 24 cups

She has 28 and needs 24, yes there is enough

7 quarts made
4×7=28
12 quests
12÷28=2 1/3
