jar x is 1 / 2 full of water . jar y , which has half the capacity of jar x , is 1 / 4 full of water . if the water in jar y is poured into jar x , then jar x will be filled to what fraction of its capacity ?
"let p be the capacity of jar x . the amount of water in jar y is 1 / 4 * p / 2 = p / 8 then the total amount in jar x is p / 2 + p / 8 = 5 p / 8 the answer is b ."
add(divide(1, 2), multiply(divide(1, 2), divide(1, 2)))
