Question

Mary bought 10 quarts of juice at the grocery. How many gallons of juice did she buy? A. 1.4 gal B. 2.5 gal C. 3.5 gal D. 4.5 gal

Answer 1

2.5 gallons (B)

Explanation:

1 gallon is equal to 4 quarts. So, if Mary bought 10 quarts, that is 10/4 gallons. Simplified, 10/4=5/2=2.5 gallons.

Answer 2

There are 4 quarts in 1 gallon. So if Mary bought 10 quarts, divide by 4 to get the equal number of gallons. 10/4 = 2.5 so the answer is B.
