For this case we have:

a: represents the ounces of almond extract left in the bottle

b: represents the number of batches of cookies made

Each batch made decreases
(1)/(6) ounce the almond extract. If there are initially 8 ounces of almond extract in the bottle, we have the following expression that represents the case:


a = 8-(1)/(6) b

Answer:


a = 8-(1)/(6) b

Option B
