Question

A pot holds 16 gallons of soup. A server will empty the pot into one pint containers

How many containers will the server fill?

Answer 1

The server will fill 128 containers.

Explanation:

1 gallon = 8 pints

In order to find out how many pints is 16 gallons, we need to multiply 16 by 8.

16 x 8 = 128 pints

If each container can only hold one pint of soup, and the pot hold 16 gallons of soup, than the server will fill 128 containers.

Hope this helps! :D
