To find out how many full mugs of milk Lucy can have, we need to divide the amount of milk she has by the capacity of each mug.
The amount of milk Lucy has is 7/10 gallon.
The capacity of each mug is 1/8 gallon.
To find out how many full mugs of milk she can have, we need to divide 7/10 by 1/8.
Dividing fractions involves multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
So, 7/10 ÷ 1/8 = 7/10 * 8/1 = (7 * 8) / (10 * 1) = 56/10 = 5.6.
Therefore, Lucy can have 5.6 full mugs of milk.
