Question

Mr. Cruz fills a 3-gallon water cooler for a family picnic. He brings plastic cups that each hold 12 fluid ounces of water. How many plastic cups can Mr. Cruz completely fill with the water from the cooler?

Answer 1

One gallon is equivalent to 128 fluid ounces

3 gallons is equivalent to 3*128 fluid ounces

= 384 fluid ounces

One plastic cup can hold 12 guide ounces

So cups needed will be 384/12

32 cups
