Answer:

The answer is 40 pints.

Explanation:

Let's start with the pints:

  1. We know there are 2 pints in a quart.
  2. We also know there are 4 quarts in one whole gallon.
  3. So, if we have 5 gallons:
  • 5(2 x 4) = amount of gallons
  • 5(8) =
  • 40 = amount of gallons

Therefore, there are 40 pints in 5 gallons.

Hope this helps!!
