Answer:

Explanation:

There are 2 pints in 1 quart, and 4 quarts in 1 gallon, so there are:

2 pints/quart x 4 quarts/gallon = 8 pints/gallon

To find the price per pint of shampoo, we need to first convert the volume of the bottle from cups to pints. There are 2 cups in 1 pint, so a 4-cup bottle of shampoo contains:

4 cups / 2 cups per pint = 2 pints

The price per pint of shampoo can then be calculated as:

$10.24 / 2 pints = $5.12 per pint

Therefore, the price per pint of shampoo is $5.12.
