kiran poured 15 cups of water into equal-sized pitches and filled 1 1/2. How much water was in the full pitcher?

9514 1404 393

  10 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of cups in a pitcher can be found by dividing cups by pitchers:

  (15 cups)/(1.5 pitchers) = 10 cups/pitcher

A full pitcher holds 10 cups.

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
