Good afternoon, could someone please help me with this? The answer is 22 1/2 oz.

Doctor instructs pt to drink 1 L (33 4/5oz) of water. An hour later you find 1/3 L left. How many ounces did Ms. White consume?

This is what I keep getting. I think I may be doing the wrong formula?

1/3=x/33.8

33.8/3= 11.26

Your answer is how much was left, not how much she drank.

Read the question carefully...

33 4/5 * 2/3= 33*2/3 + 2/3*4/5
= 22 8/15=22.53333

I'm sorry if this is a ridiculous question, but how would I figure out how many L she consumed? Yes, Steve. I did read it wrong.

how much left= 1/3 (orig amount)
how much drank: orig amount-1/3 origamount=2/3 orig amount
