Question

Debbie needs to fill juice cups for her little brother's birthday party. There are 20 juice cups and each juice cup holds 10 fluid ounces. The juice comes in 1-gallon bottles. How many 1-gallon bottles of juice will Debbie need to purchase? (1 quart = 32 fluid ounces, 1 gallon = 4 quarts) 1 bottle 2 bottles 3 bottles 4 bottles

Answer 1

Number of juice cups = 20
Capacity of a juice cup = 10 Ounce

So, Total Juice in All cups = 20 * 10 = 200 Ounces
We need to convert it into gallons, we know, 1 gallon = 128 Ounces
So, 200 Ounces = 200/128 = 1.56

So, As bottle cannot be in decimal or fraction, she have to purchase nearest greater number. She needs to purchase 2 juice bottles

Hope this helps!
