Respuesta :

Answer:

  21 1/3 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

If 1/3 was lost, 2/3 remains.

  2/3 × 32 ounces = 21 1/3 ounces

Answer: Jack left with 21.33 ounces of drink.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of ounces drink = 32

Part of drink spilled out = [tex]\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]

Part of remaining drink left = [tex]1-\dfrac{1}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex]

Number of ounces of drink left is given by

[tex]\dfrac{2}{3}\times 32\\\\=\dfrac{64}{3}\\\\=21.33\ ounces[/tex]

Hence, Jack left with 21.33 ounces of drink.
