A person is supposed to drink half a gallon of water every day. abby drank 15 small cups today if the capacity of the cup is 3.5 oz how much more water does need to drink today

He needs to drink 3 cups MORE to meet his daily requirement.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, as given in the question:

The total need for water = half a gallon = 0.5 gallon

1 gallon  = 128 oz

So, 0.5 gallon = 128/2  = 64 oz

Now, the capacity of 1 cup = 3.5 oz

The number of cups already drank by the person = 15 cups

So, the total amount of water already taken by him

= 15 cups x Capacity of 1 cup

= 15 x (3.5 oz)  = 52.5 oz

So, the amount of water left to be drink by him

= Total Need - Already covered

= 64 oz - 52 . 5 oz  =  11.5 oz

Now, as 1 cup = 3.5 oz

So, 11.5 oz  has cups  = 3.28 cup≈ 3 cups

Hence, he needs to drink 3 cups MORE to meet his daily requirement.
