Imagine you made a gallon pitcher of lemonade for your family picnic.You poured the lemonade into 12 paper cup until there wasn't a drop left.Is the volume of the lemonade in the pitcher and the lemonade in the 12 paper cups put together the same or different?Explain your reasoning.

"Put together"? The amount is the same whether in the pitcher or cups.

However, the question asks for your reasoning, not mine.

You have the same liquid it cannot change.

To determine whether the volume of the lemonade in the pitcher and the lemonade in the 12 paper cups put together is the same or different, we need to consider the total amount of lemonade poured.

Given that you started with a gallon pitcher, we know the initial volume of the lemonade was one gallon, which is equivalent to 128 fluid ounces.

Next, we need to determine the volume of each paper cup. The problem does not provide information about the size of the paper cups, so we cannot make an assumption. Without this information, we cannot determine if the volume of each cup is the same.

However, we do know that you poured the lemonade into all 12 paper cups until there was not a drop left. This implies that the total volume of lemonade in the cups equals the amount poured from the gallon pitcher.

Therefore, if we consider the volume of lemonade in the pitcher and in the 12 paper cups put together, it should be the same as the initial volume of the lemonade poured from the pitcher.
