Taylor

Taylor filled eight 5 oz glasses with orange juice ⅔ full. Emeline filled five 9 oz glasses with orange juice ¾ full. Who used more juice?

Correct answer:

x = E

Step-by-step explanation:

$$\begin{gathered} T=8\cdot 5\cdot \frac{2}{3}=\frac{80}{3}=26\frac{2}{3}\doteq 26.6667\text{oz} \\ E=5\cdot 9\cdot \frac{3}{4}=\frac{135}{4}=33\frac{3}{4}=33.75\text{oz} \\ E>T \\ x=E \end{gathered}$$
