Question

For my cousin (i gotta study for midterms)

Jon made 3/4 of a quart of hot chocolate. Each mug holds 1/8 of a quart. How many mugs will Jon be able to fill?

Write your answer as a fraction or as a whole or mixed number.

Answer 1

Answer: Jon will be able to fill 6 mugs

Explanation:

To have things simpler, we can change one of the fractions to equal the other. By changing the denominator, 4 can turn into 8 by multiplied by 2. Then, we would multiply the numerator of it as well. Since each mug holds 1/8, we can do 1/8 6 times to get 6/8. So, 6 mugs and I hope this helps you guys. Have a great day
