Question

Your job in a company is to fill quart-size bottles of oil from a full 30-gallon oil drum. Then you are to pack 8 quarts in a case to ship to a store. How many full cases of oil can you get from a full 30-gallon drum of oil?

Answer 1

Answer: 15 cases

Step-by-step explanation:

1 gallon = 4 quarts

Hence from 30 gallon oil drum, 30 x 4 = 120 quart-size bottles can be filled.

One case will pack 8 quart size bottles.

Hence number of cases = 120/8 = 15 cases
