a) 1 pint = 0.5 quarts

So 7 pints = 3.5 quarts

Now it asks 7 pints > 2 quarts

3.5 quarts > 2 quarts

So yes This statement is TRUE


b) 4 pints 1 cup > 10 cups

Now 1 pint = 2 cups

hence 4 pints = 8 cups

now 4 pints 1 cup = 9 cups

So the statement becomes

9 cups > 10 cups

So this statement is NOT TRUE.


c) 1 quarts = 32 fl oz

The statement is

1 quarts > 40 fl oz

32 fl oz > 40 fl oz

Hence this statement is NOT TRUE.


d) 1 gallon = 8 pints , 1 gallon = 16 cups , 1 pint = 2 cups

1 gallon < 8 pints 1 cup

1 gallon < 1 gallon + 1/16 gallon

Hence this statement is TRUE.
