Question

Julius is buying beverages for brunch. He needs to buy a total of 5

gallons of beverages. He decides to buy two containers of each
beverage. How many gallons of beverages did he buy?

Answer 1

He bought 4 gallons of beverages

Explanation:

1 gallon = 4 quarts

1 quart = 2 pints

1 pint = 2 cups

1 cup = 8 ounces

2×2 pints of milk

= 4 pints

`= (4\ pints)/(2\ pints) *1\ quart`

`=2\ quart`

`=(2\ quart)/(4\ quarts) * 1\ gallon`

`=(1)/(2) \ gallon`

2×2 quarts of orange juice

= 4 quarts

`=(4\ quart)/(4\ quarts) * 1\ gallon`

`=1 \ gallon`

2×16 cups of chocolate milk

= 32 cups

`=(32\ cups)/(2\ cups) * 1\ pint`

`=16\ pints`

`= (16\ pints)/(2\ pints) *1\ quart`

`=8\ quart`

`=(8\ quart)/(4\ quarts) * 1\ gallon`

`=2 \ gallons`

2×32 ounces of lemonade

= 64 ounces

`=(64\ ounces)/(8\ ounces) *1\ cup`

`=8\ cups`

`=(8\ cups)/(2\ cups) * 1\ pint`

`=4\ pints`

`= (4\ pints)/(2\ pints) *1\ quart`

`=2\ quart`

`=(2\ quart)/(4\ quarts) * 1\ gallon`

`=(1)/(2) \ gallon`

Total of all beverages

`=((1)/(2) +1+2+(1)/(2) )\ gallons`

= 4 gallons
