Question

1.On Sunday morning, Mrs. Turner made 2 gallons of juice. How many cups of juice did she make?2. Later that night, her family drank 16 cups of the juice she made. How many pints of juice remain?

Answer 1

Answer:

1. 16 cups

2. 8 pints

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the amount of cups of juice made from a certain gallon and the amount left in pints after some certain amount of the juice was consumed.

To solve this problem, we need to know the amount of cups present in a gallon of juice.

Mathematically, there are 16 cups present in a gallon. Now since she made two gallons, the amount of cups present is thus 16 * 2 = 32 cups of juice

2. 16 cups was consumed by the family. The amount of cups left is thus 32 - 16 = 16 cups of juice

We need our answer in pints however.

Mathematically, 1 pint is composed of 2 cups.

This means 16 cups would be composed of 16/2 pints = 8 pints

Answer 2

Answer:

1. 32 cups

2. 8 pints

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The amount of cups present in a gallon of juice is

A gallon = 16 cups

Therefor 2 gallons = 16×2= 32 cups

She made 32 cups

2. A pint = 2cups

If the familiy drank 16 cups and there were 32 cups

Therfore 32-16 = 16cups

2 cups is 1 pint

So 16 cups will be 16/2 = 8

8 pints
