Chin canned a number of quart jars and a number of pint jars of tamoatoes from his garden a pint is 16 ounces and a quart us 32
ounces the number of pints he canned is represented by p and the number of quarts he canned is represented by q which equation models the scenario if chin canned a total of 1280 ounces
The total volume of the canned tomato sauce is equal to the sum of those canned in quart jars (32 ounces) and the number of pint jars (16 ounces). If we let p and q be the number of pints and quarts canned, the equation that would best represent the given is, 32q + 16p = 1280 Simplifying the equation by dividing by 16 will give us the final answer of, 2q + p = 80
