Further explanation

Given:

• Mrs.Henderson makes punch by mixing 10.9 liters of apple juice, 0.6 liters of orange juice, and 8 liters of ginger ale.
• She poured equally into 6 bowls.

Question:

How much punch is in each bowl?

Express your answer in liters.

The Process:

The two steps for obtaining the amount of punch in each bowl are as follows:

Step-1: the total amount of punch after mixing is the sum of apple juice, orange juice, and ginger ale in liters.

$\boxed{ \ 10.9 \ liters + 0.6 \ liters + 8 \ liters = 19.5 \ liters \ }$

Step-2: the total amount of punch divided by the number of the bowl is the amount of punch in each bowl.

$\boxed{ \ 19.5 \ liters \div 6 \ bowls = \boxed{ \ 3.25 \ liters/bowl \ } \ }$

Let's also consider the following quick steps.

Quick steps:

$\boxed{ \ \frac{(10.9 + 0.6 + 8) \ liters}{6 \ bowls} = \frac{19.5 \ liters}{6 \ bowls} = \boxed{ \ 3.25 \ liters/bowl \ } \ }$

Therefore, the amount of punch in each bowl is 3.25 liters.

Answer 2

The amount of punch in each bowl is $\boxed{\bf 3.25\text{\bf\ liters}}$

Further explanation:

Mrs. Henderson makes punch by mixing $10.9$ liters of apple juice, $0.6$ liters of orange juice and $8$ liters of ginger ale.

She pours equally into $6$ bowls.

There is total $10.9$ liters of apple juice, $0.6$ liters of orange juice and $8$ liters of ginger ale for making a punch.

Therefore, the total quantity $n$ of juice in a punch can be calculated as adding all the juices and ale together as follows:

$\begin{aligned}n&=10.9+0.6+8\\&=19.5\end{aligned}$

Thus, there is $19.5\text{ liters}$ of punch available after mixing the juices and ale.

Now, she pours $19.5\text{ liters}$ equally into $6$ bowls.

Therefore, each bowl has $r$ quantity can be calculated by dividing $6$ to $19.5$ as follows:

$\begin{aligned}r&=\dfrac{19.5}{6}\\&=3.25\end{aligned}$  

Thus, each bowl has $\boxed{\bf 3.25\text{\bf\ liters}}$ punch.
