1 cup + 8 fluid ounces does that mean it takes 24 fluid ounces of water to fill any 3 plastic cups

To answer your question, let's first break it down step by step:

1. **1 cup = 8 fluid ounces.**
2. You're asking about the total volume for 3 plastic cups.

If each cup holds **1 cup (or 8 fluid ounces)** of water, then for 3 cups, the total volume would be:

\[
3 \, \text{cups} \times 8 \, \text{fluid ounces per cup} = 24 \, \text{fluid ounces}.
\]

Thus, yes, it would take **24 fluid ounces of water** to fill three plastic cups if each holds 8 fluid ounces.
