Question

If you need only 1 c of milk, what is your best choice at the grocery store---- a quart container, a pint container, or a 1/2 gal container?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Since 1 gallon = 4 quarts ⇒ (1/2) gallons = 2 quarts

1 gallon = 8 pints ⇒ (1/2) gallons = 4 pints

1 gallon = 16 cups ⇒ (1/2) gallons = 8 cups

Therefore from the given relation with gallons we can describe the relation between the cups, quarts and pints.

(1/2) Gallon > quarts > pints > cups

If we need 1 cup of milk then a pint container will be the best choice at a grocery store.
