A patient drinks 5 12ounce cups of coffee daily. The doctor recommends cutting back 60%, how many ounces of coffee can the patient have each day?

The patient is recommended to take 24 ounces of coffee per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Patient normal intake of coffee daily = 5 times 12 ounces

                                                          = 5 × 12 = 60 ounces

Doctor recommends to cut off 60 % of the normal intake of coffee.

And advised to take only 40 % of the daily intake of coffee.

So 60 % of 60 ounces can be calculated as,

= 36 ounces

40 % of 60 ounces is 24 ounces.

So 60 - 36 = 24 ounces of coffee per day
