Question

complete the table:
fluid ounces
24 40 56
cups
1 2 3

Explanation:

Step1: Find ounces per cup

From the table, 3 cups = 24 fluid ounces. Calculate ounces per cup:
$\frac{24}{3} = 8$ fluid ounces per cup

Step2: Calculate 1 cup in ounces

1 cup $\times 8$ ounces/cup = $8$ fluid ounces

Step3: Calculate 2 cups in ounces

2 cups $\times 8$ ounces/cup = $16$ fluid ounces

Step4: Calculate cups for 40 ounces

$\frac{40}{8} = 5$ cups

Step5: Calculate cups for 56 ounces

$\frac{56}{8} = 7$ cups

Answer:

fluid ounces	8	16	24	40	56
