Answer:
4
Explanation:
Word problems like this are always a bit tricky to get to the bottom to.
But to put it simply, this question is asking how many times can 10 oz be taken out of 5 1/4 cups. This is also shown as:
5 1/4 cups ÷ 10 ounces
First, make both numbers the same units. Since ounces are smaller, convert 5 1/4 cups into ounces.
5 1/4 cups
5 cups = 40 ounces
1/4 cup = 2 ounces
40 + 2 = 42 ounces.
so now do this:
42 ÷ 10 = 4.2
So Taylor can fill 4 full glasses with iced tea.
