You are to calculate the # of students, based upon the starting volume of juice and the amount each student receives.

                                                     22 1/2 cups
This # of students is equal to ------------------------------
                                                [1 1/4 cup / student ]

and this could be found easily by dividing 22.5 by 1.25:  18.  There are 18 students.
