Question

Larry made 5 batches of punch. Each batch ises 24 fluid ounces of lemon juice and 5 pints of orange juice. If each serving is 1 cup, how many servings did he make all together?

Answer 1

65 servings

Explanation:

Larry made 5 batches of punch.

In each batch, she uses the amount of lemon juice = 24 fluid ounces

and the amount she uses of orange juice = 5 pints

Since 1 pint = 16 fluid ounces

∴ 5 pints = 16 × 5 = 80 fluid ounces

Total quantity of punch in each batch = 24 + 80

= 104 fluid ounces

Total quantity of punch in 5 batches = 104 × 5

= 520 fluid ounces

If each serving is 1 cup.

and 1 cup = 8 ounces

He made the number of servings all together =
`(520)/(8)`

= 65 cups

He made 65 servings all together.
