Question

A patient drank 6 ounces of juice,3 cups of water,and half pint of milk.If 1 ounce is equal to 29.6 milliliters,what was the total intake in milliliters?

(A)38 milliliters

(B)1,124.8 milliliters

(C)1.28 milliliters

(D)0.8 milliliters

Answer 1

B

Explanation:

First, we have to convert cups and pints into ounces. 1 cup = 8 ounces. So you do 3 * 8, which equals 24 ounces. 1 pint = 16 ounces. So you do 1/2 * 16, which equals 8 ounces. Now, you convert each one into milliliters and add them up. (24 + 8 + 6) * 29.6 equals 38 * 29.6, which equals 1124.8 mL. So the answer is B.
