Step 2 Multiply that difference by 64.

Answer 1

I think either A or D makes more sense

Answer 2

B

Explanation:

Given

pitchers of grape juice=g=4

picthers of orange juice=o=6

Each pitcher contains 64 oz of juice

So in order to calculate, we will calculate the total number of pitchers and then multiply it by 64 to get total oz.

=(6+4)*64

=10*64

=640 oz

We can see that we added count of pitchers and then multiplied the sum by 64.

So option B is the correct answer ..
