Answer:
She poured the correct amount of oil
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are trying to compare if the amount asked to be measured was exactly what was measured.
So what we are trying exactly to get is if 2 fluid ounces corresponds to a quarter of a cup.
Mathematically we need to know the amount of fluid ounces present in a cup.
A cup contains 8 fluid ounces, this means that 1/4 of the cup would be 1/4 * 8 = 2 ounces
This corresponds to what was asked to be measured.
This means she poured the correct amount of oil
Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Measurements of oil = 2 fluid ounces
Cup measurement = ¼ cup
It is known that 8 fluid ounces is equivalent to 1 cup.
If this is so, it can be written mathematically as.
8 fluid ounces = 1 cup --- divide through by 4
8/4 fluid ounces = ¼ cup
2 fluid ounces = ¼ cup.
So, Nadine measurements of the oil is correct
