Nathan has a bottle of medicine that holds a quarter of a liter. He uses half of it. How many spoonfuls are left if each spoon holds 9 ml?

Quarter litre = 250ml He uses half so : 250/2 = 125ml
If each spoon holds 9ml -
125/9 which = 13.8, therefor 13 spoonfuls left

The bottle of medicine holds a quarter of litre. Therefore, total volume = (1/4) l = 0.25 l = (250/1000) l = 250ml
Since he has used half, half of it is left. Left = (1/2) * 250ml = 125 ml
How sponfuls left, if each is 9ml.
Number left = (125ml/9ml) =13.89
The number left is just the whole number part, we drop the decimal part. = 13 Spoonfuls left.

Nathan originally had 250 ml of medicine in the bottle. After using half, 125 ml remains. Dividing this by the 9 ml capacity of each spoon gives approximately 13 whole spoonfuls left.
