Final answer:
Oscar and Eli can sell 368 1-cup servings of lemonade because there are 16 cups in 1 gallon, and they have 23 gallons of lemonade.
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculating Servings of Lemonade
Oscar and Eli have prepared 23 gallons of lemonade and want to know how many 1-cup servings they can sell. First, we need to know the equivalent of gallons to cups. There are 16 cups in 1 gallon. Therefore, we multiply 23 gallons by 16 cups per gallon to find the total number of cups available:
23 gallons x 16 cups/gallon = 368 cups. Thus, they can sell 368 1-cup servings of lemonade.
To summarize the conversion:
1. Identify the conversion rate between gallons and cups (1 gallon = 16 cups).
2. Multiply the total gallons of lemonade by the conversion rate to get the total cups (23 gallons x 16 cups/gallon).
