To make a sports drink for the football team, Jaylen filled 9/10 of a large cooler with water. Then, he filled the remaining space with 6 cups of sports drink concentrate.
How many gallons of sports drink did JAylen make?
1 gallon = 16 cups
6cups * 8oz/cup = 48 oz. of sports drink concentrate.
48oz + 9*48oz. = 480 oz.
480oz./(128oz/gal) = 3.75 Gal.
I HOPE YOUR RIGHT.... I'M SUBMITTING IT.... @Henry
To find the number of gallons of sports drink Jaylen made, we need to determine how many cups of the drink were in the cooler and convert that to gallons.
First, let's find the total capacity of the large cooler. We are given that Jaylen filled 9/10 of the cooler with water. This means that the remaining 1/10 of the cooler was filled with the sports drink concentrate. Since both the water and concentrate together fill the entire cooler, we can add these fractions together:
9/10 + 1/10 = 10/10 = 1
So, the total capacity of the cooler is 1.
Next, we are told that Jaylen filled the remaining space in the cooler with 6 cups of sports drink concentrate. Since the total capacity of the cooler is 1, we know that these 6 cups of concentrate fill 1/10 of the cooler.
To find how many cups of sports drink are in 1 gallon, we are given that 1 gallon is equal to 16 cups.
Now, let's determine the number of cups of sports drink in the entire cooler. Since 1/10 of the cooler is filled with 6 cups of sports drink concentrate, we can find the total number of cups of sports drink by multiplying:
(6 cups concentrate)/(1/10 of the cooler) = 60 cups
Finally, to convert 60 cups to gallons, we divide by the conversion rate of 16 cups per gallon:
60 cups / 16 cups per gallon = 3.75 gallons
Therefore, Jaylen made 3.75 gallons of sports drink for the football team.
