Respuesta :

Answer:

1/8 quart

Step-by-step explanation:

STEPS TO DETERMINING THE ANSWER

Divide the total quarts of hot tea by the size of the mug. the remainder of the division is the leftover

[tex]1\frac{3}{4}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{7}{4}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{7}{4}[/tex] ×[tex]\frac{7}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{49}{8}[/tex] = [tex]6\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

6 cups would be filled and 1/8 quart would be left over
