Question

A juice container can hold 96 ounces. The container has 72 ounces of juice. What percentage is not in the container.

Answer 1

25% of the juice is not in the container.

Explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Total juice container can hold = 96 ounces

Amount of juice in container = 72 ounces

Amount of juice not in container =

`96-72=24\text{ ounces}`

We have to find the percentage of juice not in the container.

Percentage =

`=\frac{\text{Amount of juice not in container}}{\text{Total amount the container can hold}}* 100\5\\\\=(24)/(96)* 100\%\\\\=25\%`

Thus, 25% of the juice is not in the container.
