gallon of fruit punch. She pours an equal amount into 8 glasses.

What fraction of a gallon fruit punch is in each glass?

Question:

Felicia makes ½ gallon of fruit punch. She pours an equal amount into 8 glasses.

What fraction of a gallon fruit punch is in each glass?

The fraction of a gallon fruit punch is in each glass is 1/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Size of fruit punch = ½ gallon

Number of glass = 8

Required

Fraction of a gallon fruit punch is in each glass?

To solve this question, the following assumption has to be made.

- The 8 glass cups are of equal sizes.

Having said that;

The interpretation of the question is that, the fruit is evenly distributed into the 8 glass cups.

Mathematically, the size of the fruit punch will be divided by the number of glass cups.

So, we have

Fraction = ½ ÷ 8 (convert ÷ to *)

Fraction = ½ * ⅛

Fraction = 1/16

Hence, the fraction of a gallon fruit punch is in each glass is 1/16

a 4/6 = 9/12   not proportional

step-by-step explanation:

to find which are not proportional, we can use cross products

if it is true, they are proportional.   if it is not true, they are not proportional.

a 4/6 = 9/12

4* 12 = 6*9

48 = 54

not this is not proportional  

b 2/3 = 12/18  

2* 18 = 3 * 12

36 = 36

this is proportional

c 5/4 = 10/8  

5*8 = 4*10

40 = 40

this is proportional

d 7/5 = 35/25

7*25 = 5 * 35

175 = 175

is proportional
