mrs jacksin bought 6 gallons of juice for a party. each gallon has 16 cups. if 3 cups of juice were left over, how many cups did people drink at the party?
Please help
the people drank 93 cups. 6 times 16 = 96, the total number of cups, then subtract the three that were not consumed and you get 93.
To find out how many cups of juice were consumed at the party, you need to subtract the number of cups left over from the total number of cups Mrs. Jackson initially bought.
First, calculate the total number of cups of juice bought:
6 gallons * 16 cups/gallon = 96 cups
Next, subtract the cups left over from the total bought:
96 cups - 3 cups = 93 cups
Therefore, people at the party drank a total of 93 cups of juice.
