Question

A pitcher contains 40 fluid ounces of tea Shelby pour 3 cups of tea how many pints are left

Answer 1

Convert 3 cups to fluid ounces.

1 cup = 8 fluid ounces

8 * 3 = 24 fluid ounces poured:

40 - 24 = 16

There are 16 fluid ounces left, now convert to pints.

1 fluid ounce = 0.0625 pints

0.0625 * 16 = 1

So there is 1 pint left.

Answer 2

1 pint of tea left in the pitcher.

Explanation:

A pitcher contains 40 fluid ounces

1 cup = 8 fluid ounces

3 cups = 3*8 = 24 fluid ounces

After pouring tea in 3 cups,

tea left in pitcher = 40 - 24 = 16 fluid ounces

1 pint = 16 ounces

Therefore, 1 pint left.
