Answer: Choice B

Shelly has 7/8 cup of lemonade. She pours 1/4 cup of lemonade in each glass. How many glasses can Shelly fill?

=============================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

We can think of a similar problem involving
8 / 4 which could answer the question "if she has 8 cups and pours 4 cups per glass, then how many glasses can she fill?" (that answer being 2 glasses).

Then we replace the 8 with 7/8, and we also replace the 4 with 1/4. It's the same idea but now things have gotten a bit more complicated since we're dividing two fractions.
