Question

How much punch did Susan make altogether? 3 cups seltzer water 1 gallon apple juice 4 pints lemonade

Answer 1

Susan makes
`13(1)/(2)` pints of punch.

Explanation:

Consider the provided information.

We know that:

2 cups (c) = 1 pint (pt)

4 cups (c) = 1 quart (qt)

16 cups (c) = 1 gallon (gal)

So 3 cups =
`1(1)/(2)` pint

1 gallon = 16 cups = 8 pint

The three mixed together would make
`1(1)/(2)+8+4=13(1)/(2)` pints of punch.

Hence, Susan makes
`13(1)/(2)` pints of punch.
