Question

A lemonade pitcher has 12 cups of lemonade. If you pour a 1/2 cup as a serving how many servings are in a pitcher?

Answer 1

In 1 cup, there are 2 halves. In 12 cups, there are 24 halves.

You can also do a division.

12/(1/2) = 12 * 2/1 = 12 * 2 = 24

Answer: 24 servings

Answer 2

Divide 12 cups by 1/2 cups (servings).

12 ÷ 1/2 = 24

There are 24 servings of lemonade in a pitcher.
