[16 ounces = 1 pound]

Part B: A running tap dispenses 0.14 gallons of water every second. How many pints of water is dispensed after 50 seconds? Show your work. (5 points)

[1 gallon = 4 quarts, 1 quart = 2 pints]

Answer 1

Part A: 40oz
Part B: 56 pints
Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer: The fruit weighs 1.5lbs

so if 1lb = 16 oz then we can do 1.5 * 16

and get 40oz

For part b:

there is 0.14 gallons of water a sec so if after 50 seconds it would be 0.14 * 50

which is 7 gallons

and since 1 gal = 4 quarts

and we would do 7 * 4 which would be 28 quarts

and since 1 quart = 2 pints

we would do 28 * 2 which is 56 pints
