Answer 1

The weight of James cake in ounces is 52 ounces and the Pint of water dispensed in 20 seconds is 24 pints

Weight

• Weight of cake = 3 1/4 pounds

1 pound = 16 ounces

Number of ounces the cake weigh = 3 1/4 pounds × 16 ounces

= 13/4 × 16

= (208) / 4

= 52 ounces

• Water dispensed per second = 0.15 gallons
• Number of seconds = 20 seconds

1 gallon = 4 quarts

0.15 gallon = 0.6 quarts

1 quart = 2 pints

0.6 quart = 1.2 pints

Pint of water dispensed in 20 seconds = 1.2 × 20

= 24 pints of water
