Question

A soup kitchen makes 15 gallons of soup each day a quarter of the soup is served and the rest is saved for the next day , what is the number of ounces left after each day

Answer 1

Number of ounces left is 1120

Explanation:

• Step 1: Find number of ounces left after each day.

Given total soup prepared each day = 15 gallons

Amount served each day = 1/4 of 15 = 15/4 gallons

Amount left after each day = 15 - 15/4 = 60 - 15/4 = 35/4 gallons

• Step 2: Convert gallons into ounces. 1 gallon = 128 ounces

35/4 gallons = 35/4 × 128 = 1120 ounces
