Given the statement:
Jeremy has 4 1/2cup of ice tea what's to divide ice tea into 3/4 cup servings
Determine how many servings can Jeremy make.
Solution:
In order to determine how many servings can Jeremy make, we simply needed to convert first the mixed number to improper fraction for us to compute the given easily. To do so we multiply the whole number by the denominator then add the product to the numerator.
4 ½ = 9 / 2
Next we needed to multiply 9/2 by 4/3 which is the inverse or reciprocal of ¾ in order to determine the total number of servings.
= (9/2)(4/3)
=36/6
= 6
Final answer:
Jeremy can make 6 servings in total.
