Question

An infant drinks about 28 ounces of milk per day. About how many quarts of milk does the baby drink in 4 weeks?

options 49 qt 7 qt 32 qt 24.5 qt

Answer 1

An infant drinks about 28 ounces of milk per day. There are 32 ounces in a quart, so the baby drinks 28 ÷ 32 = 0.875 quarts of milk per day.

Four weeks is 4 × 7 = 28 days.

In 4 weeks, the baby drinks 28 × 0.875 = 24.5 quarts of milk.
