Molly is filling a pitcher that holds 2 gallons of water. She is filling the pitcher with a 1-cup measuring cup. How many times will she have to fill the cup 1-cup measuring cup to fill the pitcher

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

32 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Molly is filling a pitcher that holds 2 gallons of water.

1 gallon = 16 cups

So, 2 gallons = $16* 2=32 cups$

So, it requires 32 cups to fill the pitcher.

Since we are given that She is filling the pitcher with a 1-cup measuring cup.

So, no. of times she will have to fill the cup 1-cup measuring cup to fill the pitcher = $(32)/(1)=32$

Hence she will need to fill cup 1-cup measuring cup 32 times to fill the pitcher.

Answer 2

Answer: 2 cups in a pint
2 pints to a quart (therefore 4 cups to a quart)
4 quarts to a gallon (therefore 16 cups to a gallon)
And finally 2 gallons to 2 gallons (therefore 32 cups to 2 gallons)

32 times

On Friday afternoon, Maya realizes that she has put off her reading for too long and that she needs to finish her book by Monday. The book is 265 pages long. She is on page 127. How many pages will she need to read each night to finish the book before school on Monday morning?

Answers

Answer:

46 pages every night

Step-by-step explanation:

If she needs to finish the book by Monday morning it means that Sunday night is the last night that she has to read the book. Therefore she has 3 nights to finish the book (Friday, Saturday, and Sunday night). Since she is on page 127 it means that she has 138 pages left (265 - 127 = 138) to read before Monday morning. We can calculate the number of pages she needs to read each night by dividing the total pages she has left by the number of days she has to read like so...

138 / 3 = 46 pages per day

Finally, we can see that Maya needs to read a minimum of 46 pages every night in order to finish the book before Monday morning.

How to combine fraction

Answers

$\Large \frac { x }{ y }$ $\begin{matrix} \rightarrow numerator \n \rightarrow denominator \end{matrix}$

If two (or more) fractions have the same number as their denominator, you can just go ahead and add their numerators, without changing the denominator. For example:

$\frac { 1 }{ 2 }$ and $\frac { 4 }{ 2 }$ has the same number (2) as their denominator. So we will add their numerators, without changing the denominator.

$\frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\frac { 4 }{ 2 } \quad =\quad \frac { 1+4 }{ 2 } \quad =\quad \frac { 5 }{ 2 }$

So we added the numerators (1 + 4 = 5) and kept the denominator same (2) and we got ( $(5)/(2)$

This was the case where the fractions' denominator was same. What if it's not ?

If their denominator isn't equal, we're gonna have to equalize them ourself. How to do that ?

Let's show it with an example :

$\frac { 1 }{ 2 }$ and $\frac { 3 }{ 4 }$ do no have the same number as their denominator. To be able to add them, we have to equalize their denominators.

$\frac { 1 }{ 2 }$ 's denominator is 2 and $\frac { 3 }{ 4 }$ 's is 4

What can we do to equalize them ? Well, 4 is two times 2 ( $4 = 2\cdot 2$ ) So we cane multiply the denominator of $\frac { 1 }{ 2 }$ (which is 2) with 2 , to equal it to $\frac { 3 }{ 4 }$ 's denominator (which is 4).

But, there is a catch here. When multiplying a fraction's denominator before adding it to another, you should make sure that you're preserving its ratio. What does that mean ?

Let's take the number $\frac { 4 }{ 6 }$

(1) if we multiply only its numerator with a number (let it be 3)

$\frac { 3\cdot 4 }{ 6 } \quad =\quad \frac { 12 }{ 6 } \quad =\quad 2$

You got a new fraction with a different ratio than $(4)/(6)$ . And it is also equal to 2, but $(4)/(6)$ isn't equal to 2.

(2) if we multiply only its denominator with a number (let it be 3 again)

$\frac { 4 }{ 3\cdot 6 } \quad =\quad \frac { 4 }{ 18 }$

You got a new fraction again, with a different ration than $(4)/(6)$ .

How can we know that ? Well, if you simplify these two numbers to the simplest number, you'll get a different fraction or integer. Let's do so.

$\frac { 4 }{ 6 } \quad =\quad \frac { 2\cdot 2 }{ 2\cdot 3 } \quad =\quad \frac { 2 }{ 2 } \cdot \frac { 2 }{ 3 } \quad =\quad 1\cdot \frac { 2 }{ 3 } \quad =\quad \frac { 2 }{ 3 }$

So the simplified form of $(4)/(6)$ in the fraction form is $(2)/(3)$

$\frac { 4 }{ 18 } \quad =\quad \frac { 2\cdot 2 }{ 2\cdot 9 } \quad =\quad \frac { 2 }{ 2 } \cdot \frac { 2 }{ 9 } \quad =\quad 1\cdot \frac { 2 }{ 9 } \quad =\quad \frac { 2 }{ 9 }$

And the simplest form of $(4)/(18)$ as a fraction is $(2)/(9)$ , which is not equal to $(2)/(3)$

$\frac { 2 }{ 3 } \quad \neq \quad \frac { 2 }{ 9 }$

So what to do, to preserve the ratio ? Simle. We'll multiply also the numerator with the same number we're going to multiply the denominator with.

Let's get back to our example.

Adding $\frac { 1 }{ 2 }$ and $\frac { 3 }{ 4 }$

We were going to multiply $(1)/(2)$ 's denominator with 2. Now that we know, the ratio must not change, we'll also multiply the numerator with 2.

$\frac { 2\cdot 1 }{ 2\cdot 2 } \quad =\quad \frac { 2 }{ 4 }$

Now we've got a number which has the same denominator as $\frac { 3 }{ 4 }$

We can add them now,

$\frac { 2 }{ 4 } \quad +\quad \frac { 3 }{ 4 } \quad =\quad \frac { 2+3 }{ 4 } \quad =\quad \frac { 5 }{ 4 }$

$\boxed { \frac { 1 }{ 2 } \quad +\quad \frac { 3 }{ 4 } \quad =\quad \frac { 5 }{ 4 } }$

I hope this was clear, if not please ask and I'll try to explain.
