Answer:
18 number of glasses of lemonade can she pour
Step-by-step explanation:
Unit rate defined as rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 3 feet per second or 8 miles per hour, they are called unit rates.
As per the statement: Rita has 3/4 gallon of lemonade she pours 1/24 gallon of lemonade into each glass.
Number of lemonade Rita has = 3/4 gallon
[tex]\text{Unit rate per glass} = \frac{1}{24} \text{gallons}[/tex]
By definition of unit rate;
[tex]\text{Number of glasses} = \frac{\text{Number of lemonade}}{\text{Unit rate per glass}}[/tex]
Substitute the given values we get;
[tex]\text{Number of glasses} = \frac{\frac{3}{4}}{\frac{1}{24}}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Number of glasses} = \frac{3}{4} \times 24 = 3 \times 6 = 18[/tex]
Therefore, number of glasses of lemonade can she pour is, 18
