Question

Select the objects that hold the same amount of liquid as a 128−fluid-ounce jug. Select all that apply. A three 8−ounce fluid glasses and three 1−pint bottles B three 1−quart bottles C four 1−quart bottles D two 1−quart bottle and eight 8−ounce fluid glasses E three 1−quart bottles and two 1−pint bottles

Answer 1

The correct answers are C, D, and E.

1 quart = 32 fl oz
1 pt = 16 oz

Using these conversions you will multiply the number of quarts or pints by the number of ounces in each and then add the totals together to find if they equal 128 oz.

C.   4 x 32 = 128 oz
D.  2 x 32 + 8 x 8 = 128 oz
E.  3 x 32 + 2 x 16 = 128 oz
