Answer:

To find out how many cups a single jug of water fills, you can divide the total number of cups filled by the number of jugs:

184 cups / 23 jugs = <<184/23=8>>8 cups/jug

This means that one jug of water fills 8 cups.

23 jugs of water = 184 cups

You’re reversing the question and finding out how many cups can fill up a jug, divide 184/23 = 8 cups can fill one jug.

To check your answer you can multiply 8 x 23 and you’ll get the original, 184 cups.
