Vladimir is making tapioca pudding. He started with 2 3/4 fluid ounces of milk. As he cooked, he used a tablespoon of milk, which is 1/2 of a fluid ounce, x times. When he finished, he had at least 1 1/4 fluid ounces of milk left. Which phrase best describes the number of times Vladimir used a tablespoon of milk?

A- At least 3 times
B- At most 3 times
C- At most 8 times
D- At least 1 1/2 times

Answer :

B at most 3 times

2 3/4 - 1 1/4 = 1 1/2

1 1/2 ÷ 1/2 = 3

used 1/2 ounce 3 times

so I'd say the answer is b at most 3 times because he couldn't have used it more than 3 times
