▹ Answer

1/18 of a gallon of juice in each cup.

▹ Step-by-Step Explanation

Since we have 4/9 of a gallon of juice for 8 cups, we will divide to find the amount of juice in each cup.


(4)/(9) / 8

Since this operation is division, we have to change 8 to it's reciprocal which is 1/8:


(4)/(9)/ (1)/(8) = (4)/(72) = (1)/(18)

Our final answer will be 1/18 of a gallon of juice in each cup.

Hope this helps!
