Question

Kim poured a 24 ounce container of OJ into 5 cups and poured the same amount of OJ into each cup. Which rational number represents the amount of OJ in each cup? A.) 5/24, B.) 5 or C.) 24/5

Answer 1

I'll be glad to check your answer.

Answer 2

On Jiskha, students need to make some effort to help themselves. I will not give you the answer. You need to think for yourself.

Answer 3

I think the answer is A, but I'm not sure if it is.

Answer 4

It's not A. There must be more than a fraction of an ounce in each cup. That would just be a couple of drops.

Answer 5

So it's C, right?

Answer 6

Lidia/Ava -- please use the same name for your posts. Lidia thinks the answer is C. What does Ava think?

Answer 7

I think it's B.

Answer 8

No.
You've used up your guesses and accidentally found the answer. Do not post this again.

And study your text.

Answer 9

Are you really a homework helper, cause I don't understand your strategy.

Answer 10

Yes -- and I taught in a real classroom for 32 years.

My strategy -- you have three choices. You learned that two were wrong. I thought you could figure out the right one from that information.

Answer 11

Ms.Sue you work in a real classroom then why u not working now? Looks like u need it because we just need help and u just talking to Ava really disrespectful is not guiding her/ ya we need tutors basically.

Answer 12

Hi Ms. Sue!!! I hope u r doing well.
I t hi inknthe answer is C Because I know that it has to be a fraction of 5/24 or 24/5 and not a whole number. At first I thought it was A but then I checked again and knew already that it was C. Is this correct just to be sure? And sorry about some of the kids who aren't nice I'm glad your a teacher your helping me that's for sure so dont feel bad or disrespected. Byee have a good day.

Answer 13

Sorry I ment "I think"
