Question

Gus is making 58 ounces of spiced cider. If he serves an equal amount to 12 people, will each person get more than 4 ounces of cider or less than 4 ounces ?

Answer 1

more

Explanation:

There are a couple of ways you can think about this:

1. (4 oz/person)×(12 person) = 48 oz, so 58 ounces is more
2. (58 oz)/(12 person) = 4 5/6 oz/person, so each gets more than 4.

Each person will get more than 4 ounces of cider.
