Jenny has 4 gallons of sports drink for her soccer team. She is pouring the sports drink into bottles to share with her teammates. If each bottle holds 1/8 of a gallon. How many bottles will she fill?

Answer 1

To find out how many bottles Jenny can fill, we need to divide the total amount of sports drink by the capacity of each bottle.

Jenny has 4 gallons of sports drink, and each bottle holds \( \frac{1}{8} \) of a gallon.

We can calculate the number of bottles by performing the following division:

\[ \text{Number of bottles} = \frac{\text{Total gallons}}{\text{Gallons per bottle}} = \frac{4 \text{ gallons}}{\frac{1}{8} \text{ gallon/bottle}} \]

Dividing by \( \frac{1}{8} \) is equivalent to multiplying by 8:

\[ \text{Number of bottles} = 4 \times 8 = 32 \]

Therefore, Jenny can fill \( \boxed{32} \) bottles.
