Answer 1

she can serve 1,168 glasses of lemonade

Answer 2

Answer:

$g+4=12$

$g=8$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let g represent number of more glasses of lemonade.

We have been given that Jasmine made a pitcher of lemonade. One pitcher contains 12 glasses of lemonade. Jasmine serves 4 glasses of lemonade.

The number of remaining glasses plus served glasses will be equal to 12. We can represent this information in an equation as:

$g+4=12$

Let us solve for g.

$g+4-4=12-4$

$g=8$

Therefore, Jasmine can serve 8 more glasses.
