Answer:
5/4 cups fill each bottle
Step-by-step explanation:
5 5/8=45/8
4 1/2=9/2
------------------
(45/8)/(9/2)
(45/8)(2/9)
(45/4)(1/9)
45/36
5/4
1.25 cups will fill each bottle
If 5 5/8 cups of water fill 4 1/2 identical water bottles, this can be expressed as;
- 5.625cups of water = 4.5 bottles
To get the number of cups that will fill each bottle, this will give:
- x = 1 bottle
Divide both expressions
5.625/x = 4.5/1
4.5x = 5.625
x = 5.625/4.5
x = 1.25
Hence 1.25 cups will fill each bottle
