Part A

Explanation: Simply add the fractions mentioned, plus the g term, and that leads to a total of 4 gallons overall.

Part B

Explanation:

The mixed number 1 & 1/2 converts to the improper fraction 3/2

Adding the fractions gets us to

(3/2) + (7/8) + (3/4)

(12/8) + (7/8) + (6/8)

(12+7+6)/8

25/8

So far, 25/8 of a gallon is accounted for. Add on the g to get (25/8)+g

Set this equal to the 4 gallons we want and solve for g

(25/8)+g = 4

g = 4 - (25/8)

g = (32/8) - (25/8)

g = (32-25)/8

g = 7/8

She needs 7/8 of a gallon of ginger ale

there are 25 people coming to the party

step-by-step explanation:

the text says that there will be 22 children at this party, 1 teacher, and 2 parents. so if you add them all together (22+1+2) it will equal 25. (=25)
