Question

A bottle of wine known as a magnum contains a volume of 1.5 liters. a bottle known as a jeroboam contains 0.792 u.s. gallons. how many magnums are there in 7 jeroboams?

Answer 1

For this case we must know the following conversion of units:

`1 liter = 0.26 gallon (usd)`
We calculate first the total number of gallons for 7 jeroboams:

`(7) * (0.792) = 5.544 gallons.`
Then, a 1.5-liter bottle is converted to gallons:

`(1.5) * (0.26) = 0.39 gallons`
Finally, the number of magnums in 7 jeroboams is given by:

`n = (5.544) / (0.39) n = 14.21`
Rounding to the nearest whole number:

`n = 14`
Answer:
there are 14 magnums in 7 jeroboams
