Answer:

1 3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

(4 cans)/(2 1/2 qt) = (4 cans)/(5/2 qt)

= (4)·(2/5) cans/qt . . . . . . . "invert and multiply"

= 8/5 cans/qt

= (5 +3)/5 cans/qt

= (5/5 + 3/5) cans/qt

= 1 3/5 cans/qt

_____

You can also think of this as multiplying the following statement by 2/5:

... 4 cans for 5/2 quarts

... (4)(2/5) cans for (5/2)(2/5) quarts . . . . multiply by 2/5

... 8/5 cans for 1 quart . . . . simplify

... 1 3/5 cans for 1 quart . . . . write improper fraction as mixed number
