Peter mixes 4 1/2 cups of orange juice, 1 1/3 cups of ginger ale, and 6 1/3 cups of strawberry lemonade to make some punch. What is the total number of cups of punch that peter makes?
Accepted Solution
A:
just add them all:(FYI, I first converted all the mixed fraction to improper) 11/3+19/3= 30/3+9/2 Now take out the LCM, 60/6+27/6= 87/6 Hence, the total number of cups that peter makes is 87/6
