Answer:
56 cups of water
Step-by-step explanation:
Katrina drinks 0.5 gallons of water per day
We have 7 days in a week, hence, the number of gallons of water she drinks per week is calculated as:
1 day = 0.5 gallons
7 days = x
Cross Multiply
1 day × x = 7 days × 0.5 gallons
x = 7 days × 0.5 gallons/1 day
x = 3.5 gallons
Note that 16 cups = 1 gallon
The number of cups of water she drinks per week is
1 gallon = 16 cups
3.5 gallons = x
Cross Multiply
1 gallons × x = 3.5 gallons × 16 cups
x = 3.5 gallons × 16 cups/1 gallons
x = 56 cups
Therefore, Katrina drinks 56 cups of water in a week
