Answer:
Jessica can serve orange juice to 16 guests
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:
Jessica's juice jar capacity = 12 pints
Amount of juice Jessica wants to serve to each guest = 3/4 or 0.75 of a pint
2. How many guests can Jessica serve juice to?
Number of guests that can drink orange juice = Jessica's juice jar capacity/Amount of juice Jessica wants to serve to each guest
Replacing with the real values, we have:
Number of guests that can drink orange juice = 12/0.75
Number of guests that can drink orange juice = 16
Jessica can serve orange juice to 16 guests
