Question 1091725: At breakfast, I take 3/4 cup of skim milk and 1/4 of ground beans, for 3 days at week. The remaining four days, 3/4 kg of strawberries and 3/4 cup of skim milk. For how many days would a gallon (4 liters) of skim milk get if each cup is equal to 1/3 of a liter?

7 days a week drink 3/4 cup or 21/4 cups a week or 21/12 liters or 7/4 liters
4 liters available/7/4 liters per week is 4*4/7 weeks or 16/7 weeks or 2 weeks and 2 days.
=====================
The milk is equivalent to 12 cups
3/4 cup a day lasts 16 days (3/4)*16=12)
