Tina has 1/2 quart of iced tea. She pours the same amount into each of 3 glasses. Which equation represents the fraction of a quart of iced tea that is in each glass? Mark all that apply.
A. 1/2 ÷ 1/3 = n
B. 2 ÷ 3 = n
C. 2 ÷ 1/3 = n
D. 1/2 x 1/3 = n
E. 2 x 1/3 = n
F. 1/2 ÷ 3 = n
Answers are F and D
thank you!
D and F are right answer. No need to explanation
To solve this problem, we need to determine the fraction of a quart of iced tea that is in each glass.
We know that Tina has 1/2 quart of iced tea. She pours the same amount into each of the 3 glasses.
To find the fraction of a quart of iced tea in each glass, we need to divide the total amount of tea (1/2 quart) by the number of glasses (3).
So, the correct equation that represents the fraction of a quart of iced tea in each glass is:
A. 1/2 ÷ 1/3 = n
This equation correctly represents the division of 1/2 quart by 1/3 (indicating the number of glasses) to determine the fraction of a quart in each glass.
Therefore, the correct answer is A. 1/2 ÷ 1/3 = n.
I see two equations that will yield the same answer.
What do you think?
1/2 / 1/3 - 1/2 * 3 = 3/2
Hmm -- how can each glass get more than 1 quart? That is wrong.
What answer do you get for F?
