Question

The cafe served 13 mugs of green tea and 11 mugs of coffee. Each mug of tea contained 3/4 cup of tea, while each mug of coffee contained 2/3 cup of coffee. Did the cafe serve more coffee or more tea?

Answer 1

the cafe served more tea.

one cup of green tea has

`(3)/(4)`
so you multiply that by 13.

`(3)/(4) * (13)/(1)`
you get

`(39)/(4)`
divide that to find the amount of green tea. your answer for the green tea will be 9.75.

do the Same for the coffee.

`(11)/(1) * (2)/( 3) = (22)/(3) = 7.3333`

Green tea: 9.75
coffee: 7.333

The cafe served more green tea

Answer 2

3/4=9/12
2/3=8/12

they served more tea
