Question

Alex has 2/4 quarts of chocolate milk left in a jug. In another jug he had 2 1/2 pints of chocolate milk . Can Alex pour the milk from both jugs into a third jug that has a capacity of 2 gallons.

Answer 1

Yes, he can

Explanation:

We have to find the total of Chocolate milk Alex has by taking

2 1/2 = 5/2

2/4 + 5/2 = 2/4 + 10/4 = 12/4 = 3 quarts of chocolate milk

1 gallon = 4 quart

And here, Alex only has 3 quarts of chocolate milk, so he can pour the milk from both jugs into a third jug.
