Final answer:

Each bottle contains 2 cups of limonada, with a remainder of 1/2 cup.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how much limonada is in each bottle, we can divide the total amount of limonada by the number of bottles. There are 2 batches of limonada, with each batch making 15 cups. So the total amount of limonada is 2 * 15 = 30 cups. Dividing this by the number of bottles (12), we get 30 / 12 = 2.5 cups per bottle. Since we cannot have a fraction of a cup in each bottle, we need to write the remainder as a fraction. The remainder is 0.5 cups, which can be written as the fraction 1/2. Therefore, each bottle contains 2 cups of limonada, with a remainder of 1/2 cup.

Each bottle contains 2 1/2 cups of limonada with a remainder of 1/2 cup.


Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how much limonada is in each bottle, we can divide the total amount of limonada by the number of bottles. Since there are 2 batches of limonada, each making 15 cups, the total amount of limonada is 2 x 15 = 30 cups. Dividing 30 cups by the 12 bottles, we get 2.5 cups per bottle. However, since we're looking for the amount in each bottle as a whole number, we can write this as 2 1/2 cups per bottle. The remainder, 1/2 cup, can be expressed as a fraction.
