Question

Elena drank 3 liters of water yesterday. Jada drank 34 times as much water as Elena. Lin drank twice as much water as Jada a. Did Jada drink more or less water than Elena?

Answer 1

Jada drank less than Elena

Explanation:

Here, we are concerned with knowing if Jada drank more or less water than Elena.

We are told that Elena drank 3 liters yesterday

Jada drank 3/4 times = 3/4 * 3 = 9/4 liters

Lin drank twice as much as Jada = 9/4 * 2 = 9/2

Elena drank 3 and Jada drank 9/4; since 3 is greater than 9/4, then Jada drank less than Elena
