Question

A 3-gallon container of window cleaner costs $46.68. What is the price per quart?

Answer 1

Answer: 1 Quart = $3.89

Explanation:
Before you start it's important to know 4 quarts fit into 1 gallon
Right now, you have 3 gallons = $46.68
So, you want to simplify it down to one gallon. to do this you would divide both side of your equation by 3
So, you get 1 gallon = 15.56
Now if you recall 4 quarts fit into 1 gallon so you want to divide by 4 quarts.
when dividing one side of the equation make sure you are making the same change to the other end of the equation. In this case if you are dividing your gallon into 4 quarts you should be dividing your price by 4 as well.
So, each quart should end up being $3.89

Answer 2

3.89

Explanation:

To find the price per quart of the window cleaner, we need to first determine how many quarts the 3-gallon container contains. We can do this by converting the number of gallons to quarts using the conversion factor that 1 gallon is equal to 4 quarts.

3 gallons * 4 quarts/gallon = 12 quarts

Next, we need to divide the total cost of the window cleaner, $46.68, by the number of quarts to find the price per quart.

Price per quart = $46.68 / 12 quarts = $3.89/quart

Therefore, the price per quart of the window cleaner is $3.89.
