Question

37. A juice pitcher holds 1.5 gallons of liquid. How many 8-ounce glasses of juice can be poured from a full pitcher? (1 gallon 128 ounces) Explain your answer by writing or describing the steps you used to solve the problem.

Answer 1

1 gallon = 128 ounces

multiply 128 by 1.5 gallons:

1.5 x 128 = 192 ounces total

divide total ounces by 8 to get number of glasses:

192/8 = 24

you can pour 24 eight ounce glasses
