Brendan and carnal each made a bowl of punch. Carnal used 9 1/6 times as Brendan did. If Brendan used 1/3 of a cup of lemonade, how many cups of lemonade did darnay use?

Answer 1

Carnal used
`(55)/(18) \ cups \ \ \ OR \ \ \ 3(1)/(18) \ cups` of lemonade.

Explanation:

Given:

Amount of lemonade Brendan used =
`(1)/(3) \ cups`

Also Given:

Carnal used
`9(1)/(6)` times as Brendan did.

We need to find the Amount of lemonade Carnal Used.

Now we know that;

Carnal used
`9(1)/(6)` times as Brendan did.

`9(1)/(6)` can be Rewritten as
`(55)/(6)`

Hence Carnal used
`(55)/(6)` times as Brendan did.

It means that Amount of Lemonade Carnal used is equal
`(55)/(6)` times Amount of lemonade Brendan used.

framing in equation form we get;

Amount of Lemonade Carnal used =
`(55)/(6)* (1)/(3) = (55)/(18) \ cups \ \ \ OR \ \ \ 3(1)/(18) \ cups`

Hence Carnal used
`(55)/(18) \ cups \ \ \ OR \ \ \ 3(1)/(18) \ cups` of lemonade.
