Question

A lemonade stand sells 14 gallons of lemonade in three hours. How many gallons can they expect to sell after three, eight hours days?

Answer 1

112 gallons

Explanation:

A lemonade stand sells 14 gallons of lemonade in three hours, then they sell

`(14)/(3)` gallons of lemonade per hour.

Count the number of hours in 3 eight hours days:

`3* 8=24` hours.

So, a lemonade stand can expect to sell

`(14)/(3)* 24=(14)/(3)* (24)/(1)=(14* 24)/(3* 1)=14* 8=112`

gallons of lemonade in three eight hours days.
