If skim milk is 87% water, how many cups of skim milk contain 3.58 cups of water?

4.11 cups of skim milk contain 3.58 cups of water.

Given,

Skim milk contain water is 87% of water = 0.87

We have to find ,

Total no. of Cups of skim of milk 3.58 cups of water.

According to the question .

The value of a cup in milliliters first.

We know that ,

1 cup = 250 ml  

Let's convert 3.58 cups to ml  

3.58 x 250 = 895 ml

895 ml is 87% of skim milk.

Let's convert this into an equation. Let x be the amount of skim milk.

895 = 87% of x

895 = 0.87(x)

x = 1,028.73 ml

To know the amount of skim milk, let's convert it to cups.

1,028.73 ml ÷ 250 ml = 4.11 cups

4.11 cups of skim milk

Step-by-step explanation:

You can get the answer by knowing the value of a cup in milliliters first.

Let's convert 3.58 cups to ml by using the multiplication operation.

895 ml is 87% of skim milk.

Let's convert this into an equation. Let x be the amount of skim milk.

895 = 87% of x

895 = 0.87(x)

x =

x = 1,028.73 ml

Now that we know the amount of skim milk, let's convert it to cups.

1,028.73 ml ÷ 250 ml = 4.11 cups

Let's check.

step-by-step explanation:

simplifying

4x + -5 = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 4x + -2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 4x + -2x = 2x

-5 + 2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-5 + 2x = 11 + 0

-5 + 2x = 11

add '5' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 5 + 2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0

0 + 2x = 11 + 5

2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: 11 + 5 = 16

2x = 16

divide each side by '2'.
