The cafe served 13 mugs of green tea and 11 mugs of coffee. Each mug of tea contained 3/4 cup of tea, while each mug of coffee contained 2/3 cup of coffee. Did the cafe serve more coffee or more tea?

Respuesta :

3/4=9/12
2/3=8/12

they served more tea
the cafe served more tea.

one cup of green tea has
[tex] \frac{3}{4} [/tex]
so you multiply that by 13.
[tex] \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{13}{1} [/tex]
you get
[tex] \frac{39}{4} [/tex]
divide that to find the amount of green tea. your answer for the green tea will be 9.75.

do the Same for the coffee.
[tex] \frac{11}{1} \times \frac{2}{ 3} = \frac{22}{3} = 7.3333[/tex]

Green tea: 9.75
coffee: 7.333

The cafe served more green tea
