Problem 826

Daily Math Challenge - November 16, 2022



You order a cup of coffee at a coffee shop.  Unfortunately for you (since you are tired), the shop only has decaffeinated coffee brewed.  This decaffeinated coffee is 97.5% caffeine-free.  So, how many cups of this 97.5% caffeine free coffee will you need to drink to get the amount of caffeine in their standard cup of coffee (same size coffee)?
