Taylor runs a smoothie shop and is in placing his order for a week.
We are told that:
Each week he needs to have
a) For pineapple juice
2 gallons of pineapple juice
We convert these to quarts and ounces
1 gallons = 4 quarts
2 gallons = 2 × 4
= 8 quarts of pineapple juice
If he already has 3 quarts of pineapple juice
She needs: 8 quarts - 3 quarts
= 5 quarts
Converting these to ounces
1 liquid quart = 32 fluid ounces
5 quarts = x
Cross Multiply
=5 × 32 fluid ounces
= 160 fluid ounces
2) For orange juice
She needs to have 4 gallons of orange juice on hand
We convert these to quarts and ounces
1 gallons = 4 quarts
4 gallons = 4 × 4
=Hence she needs to have: 16 quarts of pineapple juice
If he already has 5 quarts of orange juice
She needs: 16 quarts - 5 quarts
= 11 quarts more
Converting these to ounces
1 liquid quart = 32 fluid ounces
11 quarts = x
Cross Multiply
=11 × 32 fluid ounces
= 352 fluid ounces
