You bought a large container of fruit punch. The label on the container says there are 128fluid ounces of fruit punch in the container. How many cups is that?

Respuesta :

Answer:

16 cups.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that there are 128 fluid ounces of fruit punch in the container. We are asked to find the cups will be in 128 oz.

We know that 1 cup equals 8 fluid oz. To convert 128 oz into cups, we will divide 128 by 8.

[tex]\text{Cups in 128 oz}=\frac{128\text{ oz}}{\frac{8\text{ oz}}{\text{1 cup}}}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Cups in 128 oz}=\frac{128\text{ oz}}{8\text{ oz}}\times \text{1 cup}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Cups in 128 oz}=16\times \text{1 cup}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Cups in 128 oz}=16\text{ cups}[/tex]

Therefore, there are 16 cups in the container.
