Question

The pitchers that Isaac bought for the party each hold 2 quarts of liquid. If he makes 15 pints of smoothie and has three pitchers, how much of the smoothie will not fit into the pitchers?

Answer 1

1 pint = 0.5 quart
15 pints = 15 x 0.5 = 7.5 quarts

3 pitchers can hold 2 x 3 = 6 quarts.

Amount remaining = 7.5 - 6 = 1.5 quarts = 1.5/0.5 = 3 pints of smoothie

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2 qt x 3 = 6 qt = 12 pt

15 pt - 12 pt = 3 pt  

3 pt = 1 qt + 1 pt
