Answer:
She can get one 1/2 jug of orange juice
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 = 4/8
7/8 - 4/8 = 3/8
3/8 is less than 1/2 so she can only get one 1/2.
First, let's find common denominators.
1/2 = 4/8
Second, we can divide to find how many 1/2 jug servings Meg can get.
= 7/8 ÷ 4/8
= 7/8 * 8/4
= 56/32 or 1 24/32
Third, we can simplify the fraction.
1 24/32 → 1 12/16 → 1 6/8 → 1 3/4
_______
So, Meg can only get 1 half jug servings from the jug.
