Cheiko bottles 4 1/8 quarts of root beer. Then she bottles another 5 7/8 quarts of root beer. How many 1-cup servings of root beer does she have?

Question

Please show me the problem, i am not getting this at all.

Answer 1

First, add 4 1/8 + 5 7/8

Since there are 4 cups in a quart, you'll need to multiply the sum by 4.

Answer 2

So, 4 1/8+ 5 7/8= 9 8/8. Do i add a whole number to the 9? and then multiply by 4?

Answer 3

Yes. 9 8/8 = 10

Answer 4

Ok. Thank you Ms.Sue!

Answer 5

You're welcome.
