Nine people are going to share a 128-ounce bottle of soda. How many ounces will each person get to drink? Choose the correct equation and answer for this situation. 128 ÷ 9 = 9/128 ounces
128 ÷ 9 = 128/9 = 14 2/9 ounces
9 ÷ 128 = 9/128 ounces
9 ÷ 128 = 128/9 = 14 2/9 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

9 people are going to share a 128-ounce bottle of soda.

We need to find how many ounces will each person get to drink.

9 people = 128-ounce bottle of soda

For 1 people,

Hence, the correct option is (b).

step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.
