Ans

Part (1): Teacher brings 384 fluid ounces of juice.

Part (2): No, if each student gets a 12-fluid ounce glass of juice then 384 fluid ounces of juice is enough for 32 students, 36 students need 432 fluid ounces of juice.

Explanation:

Part (1)

Total juice = 3 gallons

No. of students = 3

1 gallon = 128 fluid ounces

3 gallon = 3 X 128 fluid ounces

              = 384 fluid ounces

Part (2)

1 student gets juice in glass = 12-fluid ounce

Juice required for 36 students = 12 x 36

                                                   = 432

384 fluid ounces is enough for how many students = 384/12

                                                                                     = 32 students
