The correct answer to this question would be 253.2 cups. This answer can be reached by the following equation. First, 60 L * 2.11 = 126.6. You then need to convert Pints to cups. At this point, 126.6 pints becomes 253.2 cups.

the coach makes a total volume of 60 L of a sports drink

we have to find the number of cups he can fill with the drink

1 cup is equivalent to 0.5 pints

so we have to first convert L to pints

1 L = 2.11 pt

then 60 L = 126.6 pt

the volume of sports drink made is 126.6 pt

so 0.5 pt make - 1 cup

then 126.6 pt make - 1 / 0.5 x 126.6 = 253.2 cups

he can make 253 full cups and 0.2 of a cup

answer is 253.2 cups
