Question

Mrs. Wallace wants to buy 112 gallons of sour cream for a recipe. If sour cream is sold only in 1-pint containers, how many containers will she need to buy?

Answer 1

Answer:

896 containers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

1 pint = 1 container

Convert 112 gallons to pint

1 pint x 0.125 gallons

x = 112gallons

Cross multiply

0.125x = 112

x = 112/0.125

x = 896 pints

Since sour cream is sold only in 1-pint containers, then the total container she will buy is 896 containers
