Answer 1

As 1 gallon contains 8 pints, do # of pints/# of pints per gallon to get your # of gallons, 16 pints/8 pints per gallon=2 gallons as your answer.

Answer 2

Answer: 2 gallons of lemonade.

Explanation:

The container holds 16 pints of lemonade, and we know that a pint corresponds to 0.125 gallons.

So 16 pints are equal to 16 times 0.125 gallons:

16*0.125 gallons = 2 gallons

Then the container holds 2 gallons of lemonade.
