The Marrieds are planning to serve 380 guests at a breakfast event. They plan to serve tomato juice, which comes in 46 oz. cans. Assuming they plan to serve each guest a 5 oz. portion and that there are 12 cans in a case, how many cases of tomato juice will they need?

Answer :

Amount of tomato juice to be served = 5 x 380 = 1900 oz.

Number of cans in 1900 oz = 1900 / 46 = 41.3 cans

Number of cases containing 41.3 cans = 41.3/12 = 3.44 cases

Answer:

Approx 4 cases of tomato juice.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Marrieds are planning to serve 380 guests at a breakfast event.

Each guest serve = 5 oz

Total number of juice of oz = 5 x 380

                                              = 1900 oz

In 1 can = 46 oz

In 1 case = 12 can

In 1 case = 12 x 46

              = 552 oz

In 552 oz = 1 case

   In   1 oz = 1/552 case

In 1900 oz [tex]=\dfrac{1}{552}\times 1900[/tex]

                 [tex]=3.44\approx 4[/tex]

Hence, Approx 4 cases of tomato juice.
