Question

1 milliliter of ink can print 50 pages of text. If you had 100 gallons of inl then how many pages could you print?

Answer 1

By converting 100 gallons to milliliters and using the conversion rate of 1 milliliter of ink per 50 pages, it is calculated that 100 gallons of ink can print approximately 18,927,050 pages.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question involves converting gallons to milliliters and then calculating the number of pages that can be printed using this volume of ink. The conversion factor from gallons to milliliters and the information that 1 milliliter of ink can print 50 pages are critical in solving this problem.

First, we need to convert gallons to milliliters, because we know how many pages can be printed per milliliter. There are 3,785.41 milliliters in a gallon. So, for 100 gallons, we have:

• 100 gallons × 3,785.41 milliliters/gallon = 378,541 milliliters

Now, we calculate the number of pages that can be printed using 378,541 milliliters:

• 378,541 milliliters × 50 pages/milliliter = 18,927,050 pages

Therefore, 100 gallons of ink can print approximately 18,927,050 pages of text.

Answer 2

1ml = 0.00026417 gallons

100gallons = 378,544.11 ml

378544 x 50 pages = 18,927,200 pages
