Question

A lemonade stand sells 14 gallons of lemonade in three hours. How many gallons can they expect to sell after three, eight hours days?

Answer 1

Answer:

112 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

A lemonade stand sells 14 gallons of lemonade in three hours, then they sell

$\dfrac{14}{3}$ gallons of lemonade per hour.

Count the number of hours in 3 eight hours days:

$3\times 8=24$ hours.

So, a lemonade stand can expect to sell

$\dfrac{14}{3}\times 24=\dfrac{14}{3}\times \dfrac{24}{1}=\dfrac{14\times 24}{3\times 1}=14\times 8=112$

gallons of lemonade in three eight hours days.
