Answer 1

`\mathrm{1 ( 1 )/( 6 )\:cups}`

Explanation:

Given from the graph:

There is
`(1)/(2)` cups of paint for one jar

There are 3 cups of paint for three jars

There is 1
`(1)/(2)` cups of paint for one jar

There is 2 cups of paint for one jar

total amount of jars = 6

But since we need to find the amount of cups in each jar, we do:

`( 1 )/( 2 ) +3+1 ( 1 )/( 2 ) +2`

Add
`(1)/(2)` and 1
`(1)/(2)`

`2+3+2`

Add 2 and 3

`5+2`

Add 5 and 2

`7`

total cups of paint = 7

Then we need to find how much paint could be splitted equally among the 6 jars, so we do the following:

total amount of jars = 6

total cups of paint = 7

We divide the total amount of jars by the total cups of paint

7 ÷ 6

Divide 7 by 6

`( 7 )/( 6 )`

`= 1 ( 1 )/( 6 )`

`\mathrm{Answer: 1 ( 1 )/( 6 )\:cups}`
