A pitcher of fruit punch holds 2 gallons if 9 people share the entire pitcher equally how much punch does each person. Answer: 2 cups of fruit punch.

2*9 = 18

18:9 = 2

Answer: 2 cups of fruit punch.

Explanation: so, you divide. why do I know this? because it doesn't say "times," (multiplication word) "more than," (addition word) "less than / left over.

" (subtraction word) so what your looking for is "equally," and "each. "

So, can you do 2:9? no, you cant. so you have to multiply 2*9 to get the answer. and what's the answer? 18!

so, now, can you divide 18:9? yes! why? because you can only divide big numbers like 18. and you can't divide small numbers like 2 or 9. do you get what I'm saying?

so, what's 18:9? 2!
