Answer:
[tex]\frac{15}{8}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
To get the number of pitchers, we will add all the given quantity of water in all jugs.
[tex]\frac{1}{2} +\frac{1}{3} +\frac{1}{6} +\frac{1}{2} +\frac{1}{8} +\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{2} +\frac{1}{2}[/tex]=1
[tex]1+ \frac{1}{3} +\frac{1}{6} +\frac{1}{8} +\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
The LCM of 1, 3,6,8 and 4 =24
[tex]\frac{24+8+4+3+6}{24}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{45}{24}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{15}{8}[/tex]
= 1.875
