Question

Willow has 3/4 of a gallon of milk left that has an expiration date in 6 days. If she splits the milk equally among her next 6 bowls of cereal, how much milk will she use in each bowl

Answer 1

Answer:

$\dfrac{1}{8}\ \text{gallons}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of milk remaining is $\dfrac{3}{4}\ \text{gallons}$

Number of bowls is $6$.

So, each bowl will contain

$\dfrac{\dfrac{3}{4}}{6}$

$=\dfrac{3}{4}\times \dfrac{1}{6}$

$=\dfrac{3}{24}$

$=\dfrac{1}{8}\ \text{gallons}$

Hence, each bowl will have $\dfrac{1}{8}\ \text{gallons}$ of milk.
