Aglass pitcher is filled with water. 1/8 of the water is poured equally into 2 glasses.
a. what fraction of the water is in each glass?
b. if each glass has 3 fluid ounces of water in it, how many fluid ounces of water were in the full pitcher?
c. if 1/4 of the remaining water is poured out of the pitcher to water a plant, how many cups of water are left in the pitcher?

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a)

Let the volume of water in glass pitcher be 'V'

Now it is given that 1/8 of water is poured in 2 glasses

Thus the volume of water in each glass is

Part b)

Now it is given that volume of water in each glass is 3 fluid ounces thus to obtain the original volume we euate the volume obtained in part a with 3. Thus

Part c)

After pouring out 1/8 water from the orifinal glass the volume of watre that remains in the pitcher euals

Now since 1/4 of the above volume is poured out which euals

Thus the volume of water that remains euals

Applying the value of V we get

ounces

answer: the value of x is 7cm
