Question

a recipe asks for 4 cups of pretzels, 1 quart of peanuts, 1 cup of seasoning, and 3 cups of cheese sticks. what is the total number of pints?

Answer 1

* 4 cups of pretzels - There are 2 cups in 1 pint, so 4 cups of pretzels is equivalent to 2 pints.

* 1 quart of peanuts - There are 4 cups in 1 quart, and 2 cups in 1 pint. So 1 quart is equivalent to 2 pints.

* 1 cup of seasoning - 1 cup is equal to 1/2 pint.

* 3 cups of cheese sticks - 3 cups is equal to 1.5 pints

Now we just add up the total number of pints:

* 2 pints from the pretzels

* 2 pints from the peanuts

* 0.5 pint from the seasoning

* 1.5 pints from the cheese sticks

Total number of pints is: 2 + 2 + 0.5 + 1.5 = 6 pints

So the total number of pints from the given ingredients is 6 pints.
