In the given problem, it is already given that Ronald had squeezed out 256 ounces of juice. That juice has to be filled in number of half gallon containers. Firstly we have to convert the ounce to gallons.
We already know that
1/2 gallon = 64 ounce
Then
If 64 ounce is = 1/2 gallon
Then
256 ounce is equal to = [(1/2)/64] * 256
= 256/(64 * 2)
= 256/128
= 2
So 2 half gallon containers are enough to hold 256 ounces of juice that Ronald made from oranges.
