Emily had 14.6 fluid ounces of soup leftover after dinner. She deciced to divide the leftover soup into small containers, each holding 1/6 of a cup. Given that there are 8 fluid ounces in a cup, how many containers will emily need to hold all the soup

11 containers

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told in the question

1 container = 1/6 cup

We also know that:.

1 cup = 8 fluid ounces

1/6 cup =

x = 1/6 × 8 fluid ounces

x = 1.33 fluid ounces

Therefore,

1 container = 1.33 fluid ounces

Emily had 14.6 fluid ounces of soup leftover after dinner.

Hence:

1.33 fluid ounces = 1 container

14.6 fluid ounces = x

Cross Multiply

1.33 × x = 14.6 × 1

x = 14.6/1.33

x = 10.977443609 containers

Approximately = 11 containers

Therefore, Emily will need 11 containers to hold all the soup.

9 x 8 divided by (5-3)=36
