Question

The serving size for the granola that Ted likes to eat for breakfast is 3/4 cup. How many servings are there in a box that holds 13 cups?

Answer 1

A box with `13` cups holds `17` full servings, with a bit left over.

Explanation:

Each cup holds a bit more than 1 serving, so we know there are at least 13 servings in a box.

We need to know how many servings of `3/4` cup can be obtained from 13 cups.

You just divide `13 " by " 3/4`.

`13 div 3/4 = 13 xx 4/3`

`52/3 = 17 1/3`

There are 17 servings with `1/3` of a serving left over.
