Answer :
To determine which option correctly establishes approximate measurements equaling one standard drink or 5 ounces of pure alcohol, we need to assess each option based on the typical alcohol content for spirits, beer, and wine.
### Option Analysis:
1. Option 1:
- Spirits: 1 oz of 100 proof
- Beer: 12 oz
- Wine: 5 oz
2. Option 2:
- Spirits: 2 oz of 80 proof
- Beer: 16 oz
- Wine: 6 oz
3. Option 3:
- Spirits: 1 oz of 80 proof
- Beer: 12 oz
- Wine: 7 oz
### Understanding Alcohol Content:
- Proof and Alcohol Percentage:
- Proof is twice the alcohol by volume (ABV) percentage. Therefore, 100 proof is 50% alcohol, and 80 proof is 40% alcohol.
- Standard Drink:
- A standard drink in the U.S typically contains about 0.6 ounces of pure alcohol.
### Calculating Alcohol Content:
1. Option 1:
- Spirits: [tex]\((1 \, \text{oz} \times 50\% = 0.5 \, \text{oz of alcohol})\)[/tex]
- Beer: [tex]\(12 \, \text{oz} \times 0.05 \approx 0.6 \, \text{oz of alcohol}\)[/tex]
- Wine: [tex]\(5 \, \text{oz} \times 0.12 = 0.6 \, \text{oz of alcohol}\)[/tex]
- Total: [tex]\(0.5 + 0.6 + 0.6 = 1.7 \, \text{oz} \)[/tex]
2. Option 2:
- Spirits: [tex]\((2 \, \text{oz} \times 40\% = 0.8 \, \text{oz of alcohol})\)[/tex]
- Beer: [tex]\(16 \, \text{oz} \times 0.05 = 0.8 \, \text{oz of alcohol}\)[/tex]
- Wine: [tex]\(6 \, \text{oz} \times 0.12 = 0.72 \, \text{oz of alcohol}\)[/tex]
- Total: [tex]\(0.8 + 0.8 + 0.72 = 2.32 \, \text{oz}\)[/tex]
3. Option 3:
- Spirits: [tex]\((1 \, \text{oz} \times 40\% = 0.4 \, \text{oz of alcohol})\)[/tex]
- Beer: [tex]\(12 \, \text{oz} \times 0.05 = 0.6 \, \text{oz of alcohol}\)[/tex]
- Wine: [tex]\(7 \, \text{oz} \times 0.12 = 0.84 \, \text{oz of alcohol}\)[/tex]
- Total: [tex]\(0.4 + 0.6 + 0.84 = 1.84 \, \text{oz}\)[/tex]
### Conclusion:
From the analysis:
- Each option was calculated and compared against the approximate total of 1 drink (0.6 oz of pure alcohol). None perfectly equals 5 oz of pure alcohol, as a single drink would never contain that much alcohol.
- Option 1 results in a combined alcohol ounce total closest to a typical consumption amount without excess.
Hence, the correct response given the calculations would be "None of the above" as none reach a high total of 5 oz of pure alcohol, which exceeds standard drink definitions.
