32. Ronald is buying a curtain rod for his window, which is 38 inches wide. The rod needs to fit the width of the window exactly, so the rod needs to be 38 inches long. The store is selling rods that are 3 feet long. Will one of these rods fit his window?
33. Colleen is buying bananas, and she puts 4 pounds 6 ounces on the scale. She takes some bananas off, and now she has 3 pounds 8 ounces on the scale. How many ounces of bananas did she take off?
34. Miguel drinks 8 cups of water a day. How many gallons of water does he drink in a week?

34.
4 cups = 1 quart
4 quarts = 1 gallon
- 8 cups x 7 days = 56 cups
56 cups = 3.5 gallons

33.
16 ounces = 1 lb
Colleen started off with 70 ounces after she takes some off she has 56 so,
70 - 56 = 14(ounces she took off)
