Question

Eden brings a 0.75-quart bottle of sports drink to each softball practice. At her first practice, she drank (1)/(2) bottle of sports drink. At her second practice, she dran the entire bottle. How many quarts of sport drink did she consume during both practices?

Answer 1

Eden consumed a total of 1.125 quarts of sports drinks during two softball practices, by drinking half a bottle (0.375 quarts) at the first practice and a full bottle (0.75 quarts) at the second.

Step-by-step explanation:

The subject of the student's question is mathematics, specifically involving the conversion of liquid measurements and addition of fractions. To find out how many quarts of sports drink Eden consumed during both softball practices, you need to add the amount consumed at each practice:

1. At the first practice, Eden drank ½ bottle of her 0.75-quart sports drink, which is 0.75 quarts × ½ = 0.375 quarts.
2. At the second practice, she drank the entire bottle, which is 0.75 quarts.

Adding these together: 0.375 quarts + 0.75 quarts = 1.125 quarts.

Therefore, Eden drank a total of 1.125 quarts of sports drinks during the two practices.
