Question

Kenny had some money. He bought 8 cups of water and 2 cups of chocolate milk with 4/5 of his money. The cost of a cup of chocolate milk is 6 times as much as a cup of water. How many more cups of water can he buy with his remaining money?

Answer 1

cost of cup of water ---- x

cost of cup of cmilk = 6x

cost of ingredients = 8x + 2(6x) = 20x
this is 4/5 of his money, so he has 1/5 of money left
or he has (1/5)(20x) or 4x left
each cup of water costs x
so he can still get 4x/x or 4 cups of water.

That's some weird cost for water!

Answer 2

Or 5

Answer 3

Let, cost of cup of water = x, cost of cup of choc milk = 6x

8 * x + 2 * 6x = 4/5 of money
4/5 of money = 8x + 12x = 20x
Remaining money = 1/5 of money = 20x/4 = 5x
∴ Kenny can buy 5 more cups of water with remaining money.

Answer 4

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

To determine the number of cups of water Kenny can buy with his remaining money, we need to follow these steps:

Step 1: Calculate the cost of 8 cups of water.
- Since 4/5 of his money was spent on 8 cups of water and 2 cups of chocolate milk, we can assume that the remaining 1/5 of his money is enough to buy the 8 cups of water.
- Therefore, to figure out the cost of 8 cups of water, we need to know the cost of 2 cups of chocolate milk.

Step 2: Find the cost of a cup of chocolate milk.
- The problem states that the cost of a cup of chocolate milk is 6 times the cost of a cup of water.
- Let's assume the cost of a cup of water is x (in some unit of currency).
- Therefore, the cost of a cup of chocolate milk would be 6x.

Step 3: Calculate the cost of 2 cups of chocolate milk.
- Since Kenny used 4/5 of his money to buy 8 cups of water and 2 cups of chocolate milk, the remaining 1/5 of his money should cover the cost of 2 cups of chocolate milk.
- Since the cost of a cup of chocolate milk is 6x, the cost of 2 cups of chocolate milk would be 2 * 6x = 12x.

Step 4: Calculate the cost of 8 cups of water.
- Since we know that Kenny's remaining money is enough to buy the 8 cups of water, which we calculated as the same cost as 2 cups of chocolate milk, the cost of 8 cups of water is also 12x.

Step 5: Determine how many more cups of water Kenny can buy with his remaining money.
- Since Kenny used 4/5 of his money to buy 8 cups of water and 2 cups of chocolate milk, his remaining money is 1/5 of the original amount.
- So, if the cost of 8 cups of water is 12x, his remaining money can buy (1/5 * 12x) = 2.4x worth of water cups.

Therefore, Kenny can buy 2.4x more cups of water with his remaining money.
