Question

The frequency table below shows the amount of oatmeal, in cups, 10 runners ate before a race. How many cups of oatmeal did the runners eat in total?

A table with 2 columns, cups and runners. Row 1, 1 cup and 3 runners. Row 2, 1 and 1 quarter cups and 2 runners. Row 3, 1 and 1 half cups and 3 runners. Row 4, 1 and 3 quarter cups and 2 runners. Row 5, 2 cups and 1 runner.

Answer 1

To find the total amount of oatmeal the runners ate, we can multiply the number of cups by the number of runners for each row and then add them together.

Row 1: 1 cup * 3 runners = 3 cups
Row 2: 1 1/4 cups * 2 runners = 2 1/2 cups
Row 3: 1 1/2 cups * 3 runners = 4 1/2 cups
Row 4: 1 3/4 cups * 2 runners = 3 1/2 cups
Row 5: 2 cups * 1 runner = 2 cups

Adding these amounts together:
3 cups + 2 1/2 cups + 4 1/2 cups + 3 1/2 cups + 2 cups = 15 1/2 cups

Therefore, the runners ate a total of 15 1/2 cups of oatmeal.
