Explain whether or not Mrs. Jasper is correct. Show all work to support your explanation.

Answer 1

Answer:

She is wrong

Step-by-step explanation:

in one gallon there is 128 ounces, and 2 would make it 256.

40 - 8 ounce cups would make it 320 ounces, therefore she would need 3 gallons at least.
