Question

Which pitcher has a greater capacity, one that holds 2 gallons or one that holds 12 quarts? How do you know?

Answer 1

1 gallon is 4 quarts so just divide 12 by 4 and you get three. So the 12 quarts equals 3 gallons which is obviously bigger than 2.

Answer 2

so convert
4 quarts=1 gallon
convert to quarts
2 gallos=2 times 4 quarts=8 quarts

2 gallons=8 quarts
12>8
12 quarts is greated than 2 gallons
or you could have converted to gallons
