Answer:
9.5 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Josh mixed 2 cartons of orange juice, 3 bottles of soda water and 6 cans of
cocktail fruits to make a fruit punch.
Each carton of juice is 1 gallon and 3 quarts.
Therefore, 2 cartons will be:
2 * (1 gallon + 3 quarts) = 2 gallons and 6 quarts
1 quart = 0.25 gallon
6 quarts = 6 * 0.25 = 1.5 gallons
Therefore, Josh poured 3.5 gallons of orange juice.
Each soda water bottle contains 6 quarts. There are 3 bottles of soda water.
Therefore, the number of gallons that the soda water bottle contains is:
3 * 6 * 0.25 = 4.5 gallons
The cans of cocktail fruit are 2 pints each. There are 6 cans of cocktail fruit.
1 pint = 0.125 gallon
2 pints = 0.25 gallons
=> 6 cans of cocktail fruit is:
6 * 0.25 = 1.5 gallons
The amount of fruit punch that Josh made is the sum of all components:
3.5 + 4.5 + 1.5 = 9.5 gallons
