Answer:

She buys 24 pints of milk

Explanation:

The conversion rule for a pint to the gallon is represented:


\text{ 1 pint=0.125 gallons}

Then, we can make a proportional relationship to determine how many pints of milk she buys:


\begin{gathered} (1)/(0.125)=(x)/(3) \\ x=(3)/(0.125) \\ x=24\text{ pints} \end{gathered}
