Question

If you needed only 1 cup of milk,what is your best choice at the grocery store- a quart container, a pint container, or 1/2 gallon container. Explain.

Answer 1

so 1 cup
I guss you don't want to cook any more in the future so the question is asking you which one is closest to 1 cup so you don't wast any

convert all to cups
2 cup=1 pint
2 pint=1 quart
4 quart=1 gall so

1 gal=16 cups
1 quart=4 cups
1 pind=2 cups

1 quart=4 cups
1 pint=2 cups
1/2 gallon=16/2=8 cups

1 pint is closes to 1 cup so the answe ris 1 pint

Answer 2

You must convert each of these into cups
1 quart = 4 cups
1 pint = 2 cups
1 gallon = 16 cups but its telling us that a half gallon so we must divide it by 2 to get 8 cups in a 1/2 gallon container!
So since i pint has 2 cups of milk it is the best choice
I hope this helps!
