Final answer:

Sophia can fill 12 glasses of lemonade, by dividing 3/4 quart by 1/16 quart.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks how many glasses of lemonade Sophia can fill if she has 3/4 quart of lemonade and each glass holds 1/16 quart. To find the answer, you need to divide the total amount of lemonade by the amount each glass holds.

Step-by-Step Solution

Identify the total amount of lemonade Sophia has: 3/4 quart.

Identify the capacity of each glass: 1/16 quart.

Divide the total amount of lemonade by the capacity of one glass to find how many glasses can be filled: 3/4/ (1/16) = 3/4 * 16/1 = 3 * 4 = 12.

Therefore, Sophia can fill 12 glasses with 3/4 quart of lemonade.
