We have a question on conversion of units, in this case, pints to ounces.

1 pint = 16 ounces

Each student had 1 pint,

Total volume by 14 students = 14 x 1 = 14 pints.

Next we convert to ounces:


\begin{gathered} 1\text{ pint = 16 oz} \\ 14\text{ pints = 14 }*16=224\text{ ounces} \end{gathered}

The class consumed 224 ounces
