Answer to Question 1

2

Rationale 1: Glasses of water (ounces) /day = 1 glass/12 ounces x 32 ounces/1quart x 3 quarts/1 day. Multiply the numerators (1 x 32 x 3= 96). Multiply the denominators (12 x 1 x 1 = 12). 96/12 = 8 glasses.

Answer to Question 2

3

Rationale 1: Months = 1 month/30 days x 45 days/1 . Multiply the numerators (1 x 45 = 45). Multiply the denominators (30 x 1 = 30). 45/30 = 1.5 months.
