Question

Lily has a bottle containing 7/8 quart of milk. She pours 4/5 of it into a bowl. What amount of milk does she pour into the bowl?

Answer 1

7/8 quart of milk  *(4/5)= 7/10 quart of milk.

Answer 2

Answer:

7/10

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that Lily has 7/8 quart of milk and she pours 4/5 OF it into a bowl.

Think about... what does of mean...

Of means 7/8

So 4/5 OF 7/8

4/5 of 7/8 = 4/5 X 7/8

4 x 7 = 28

5 x 8 = 40

Then you simplify:

28/40 divided by 4/4 = 7/10

So Lily pours 7/10 quart of milk in the bowl.
