Question

Darlene is making punch. She pours 4 quarts 2 cups of apple juice into a bowl. Then she pours 3 quarts 1 cup of grape juice into the bowl. How much juice is in the bowl now?

Answer 1

There are 7 quarts and 3 cups of juice in the bowl.

Explanation:

Given;

Darlene pours 4 quarts 2 cups of apple juice into a bowl.

Now we know that;

1 quarts = 4 cups

Amount of apple juice in the cup =
`4* 4 + 2= 16+2=18\ cups`

Also Given:

she pours 3 quarts 1 cup of grape juice into the bowl.

Amount of grape juice in the bowl =
`3*4+1 = 12+1=13\ cups`

We need to find the Total amount of juice in the bowl.

Solution:

Now we can say that;

Total amount of juice in the bowl is equal to sum Amount of apple juice in the cup and Amount of grape juice in the bowl.

framing in equation form we get;

Total amount of juice in the bowl =
`18+13 =31\ cups`

4 cup = 1 Quarts

31 cup = Number of quarts in 31 cup.

By using unitary method we get;

Number of quarts in 31 cup =
`(31)/(4) = 7.75 \ quarts`

0.75 quarts = 3 cups

Hence There are 7 quarts and 3 cups of juice in the bowl.
