Question

You work at a factory that bottles honey. The factory bottles 5,250 gallons of honey into cup size bottles on average a day. How many cups of honey does the factory bottle a day

Answer 1

16 cups in a gallon and you have 5250 gallons so 5250*16= 84,000 cups that the factory has to bottle a day 

Answer 2

The number of cups of honey the factory bottle a day is:

84000 cups.

Explanation:

We know that the general conversion of the gallons to the number of cups is given by:

1 gallon = 16 cups.

Now, it is given that:

The factory bottles 5,250 gallons of honey into cup size bottles on average a day.

This means that we need to convert 5,250 gallons into number of cups.

Since,

1 gallon = 16 cups.

Hence,

5250 gallons = 5250×16 = 84000 cups.
