Emma used 1/7 of a liter of milk to make 1/6 of a jug of tea. How much milk, in liters, is required to fill the jug?

It is good that you asked, and  

 

Emma used 1/7 of a liter of milk to make 1/9 of a jug of tea. How much milk is required to fill the jug?

 

 

 (1/7) / (1/9)  =  x / 1      cross-multiply

 

(1/7) =  (1/9)x     multiply both sides by 9

 

then go from there.

Kminery62 Im pretty sure that it has 1/6 liters not 1/7 and you don't multiply by 6

Well....if 1/7 liters  of milk makes 1/6 of a jug

 

Then  six times this must be a full jug....so

 

6*(1/7)   =

 

6/7 liters of milk  required

 

 

cool cool cool
