Answered by admin @



Answer:

Juan's expression is not correct because  1 3/8 equals 11/8 and John used 12/8

5\frac{1}{2}\ cup\ servings

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find out how many 1/4 cup servings are in 1 3/8 cups of juice, divide 1 3/8 cups of juice by 1/4 cup servings

so

1\frac{3}{8}:\frac{1}{4}

but first

Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

1\frac{3}{8}=1+\frac{3}{8}=\frac{1*8+3}{8}=\frac{11}{8}

substitute in the expression above

\frac{11}{8}:\frac{1}{4}=\frac{11}{2}

Convert to mixed number

\frac{11}{2}=\frac{10}{2}+\frac{1}{2}=5\frac{1}{2}\ cup\ servings

Juan's expression is not correct because  1 3/8 equals 11/8 and John used 12/8
