Kate shares

Kate shares a 64-ounce bottle of apple cider with 5 friends. Each person’s serving will be the same number of ounces. Between what two whole number of ounces will each person’s serving be? Explain using division.

Correct answer:

a =  12 oz
b =  13 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

$$\begin{gathered} B=64\text{ oz } \\ n=5 \\ x=B\mathrm{/}n=64\mathrm{/}5={\displaystyle \frac{64}{5}}=12.8 \\ a=\lfloor x\rfloor =\lfloor 12.8\rfloor =12\text{ oz} \end{gathered}$$
