Question

A container holds 4 gallons of lemonade. A large lemonade contains 16 ounces. How many large lemonades could the restaurant cell before they ran out of lemonade?

Answer 1

Given:

A container holds 4 gallons of lemonade.

A large lemonade contains 16 ounces.

To find:

The number of large lemonades that the restaurant can cell before they ran out of lemonade.

Solution:

We know that,

1 gallon = 128 ounces

4 gallon = 512 ounces

So, a container holds 512 ounces of lemonade.

A large lemonade contains 16 ounces. So,

$\text{Number of large lemonades}=\dfrac{\text{Total lemonade in container}}{\text{Lemonade in a large container}}$

$\text{Number of large lemonades}=\dfrac{512}{16}$

$\text{Number of large lemonades}=32$

Therefore, the required number of lemonades is 32.
