every time audrey orders chinese food, she gets egg drop soup. so, she decides to learn how to make it herself. her recipe calls for 8 cups of broth, but she can only find 32 - fluid - ounce cartons at the store. how many cartons should she buy? cartons

Explanation:

Step1: Convert cups to fluid ounces

We know 1 cup = 8 fluid ounces, so $8 \text{ cups} \times 8 \frac{\text{fl oz}}{\text{cup}} = 64 \text{ fl oz}$

Step2: Calculate number of cartons

Divide total needed ounces by ounces per carton: $\frac{64 \text{ fl oz}}{32 \text{ fl oz/carton}} = 2$

Answer:

2 cartons
