Respuesta :

Answer:

The number of quarts of apple juice in a case of 24 bottles is 18.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is solved by proportions, using rules of three.

Amount of ounces:

1 bottle - 25 ounces

24 bottles - x ounces

Applying cross multiplication:

[tex]x = 25*24 = 600[/tex]

600 ounces to quarts:

Each ounce has 0.03125 quarts.

1 ounce - 0.03125 quarts

600 ounces - x quarts:

[tex]x = 600*0.03125 = 18.75[/tex]

The number of quarts of apple juice in a case of 24 bottles is 18.75.
