Respuesta :

The total number of paper cups that Tony can fill with the available lemonade is 5 [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] quarts

Step by step explanation :

Step 1 :

Total quantity of lemonade Tony has  = 2 [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] quarts = [tex]\frac{11}{4}[/tex] quarts

Total quantity of lemonade that the paper cup can hold = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] quarts

We need to find the total number of paper cups that can be filled with the available lemonade.

Step 2 :

The number of paper cups that can be filled with the available lemonade can be obtained by dividing the total available lemonade with the quantity that each cup can hold.

Hence the total number of paper cups =  [tex]\frac{11}{4}[/tex]  × [tex]\frac{2}{1 }[/tex]

                                                                = [tex]\frac{11}{2}[/tex]   = 5 [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] quarts

Step 3 :

Answer :

The total number of paper cups that Tony can fill with the available lemonade is 5 [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] quarts
