Question

14. The strongest beer ever sold named "The End of History” contains 55% alcohol content (sold in July 2010). Whatamount of alcohol is in each bottle of 16 oz beer?

Answer 1

The strongest beer named "The End of History" with 55% alcohol content would contain 8.8 ounces of alcohol in each 16 oz bottle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks us to calculate the amount of alcohol present in a 16 oz bottle of beer that contains 55% alcohol by volume. To find the volume of alcohol, you multiply the total volume of the beer by the percentage of alcohol. Since percentages are expressed as a fraction of 100, you will convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing it by 100. Therefore, 55% will be converted to 0.55. Now, we can calculate the amount of alcohol:

Volume of alcohol = Total volume of the beer × Percentage of alcohol as a decimal

Volume of alcohol = 16 oz × 0.55

Volume of alcohol = 8.8 oz

So, each 16 oz bottle of "The End of History" beer contains 8.8 ounces of alcohol.

Answer 2

We have that the 100% of the bottle is 16oz, the percentage that we need to calculate is 55% of the 100%

`16\cdot(55)/(100)=8.8oz`

The amount of alcohol in a bottle of 16 oz is 8.8oz.
