Question

Adele and lorenzo each made a bowl of punch. lorenzo used 4 times as much lemonade as adele did. if adele used 1/2 of a cup of lemonade, how many cups of lemonade did lorenzo use?

Answer 1

Lorenzo used 2 cups of lemonade.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how many cups of lemonade Lorenzo used, we need to compare the amount Adele used. It is given that Lorenzo used 4 times as much lemonade as Adele. If Adele used 1/2 of a cup of lemonade, then Lorenzo used:

Lorenzo's lemonade = 4 * Adele's lemonade

Lorenzo's lemonade = 4 * 1/2

Lorenzo's lemonade = 2 cups

So, Lorenzo used 2 cups of lemonade.
