Answer:

So Sara can fill 24 pint bottles completly with 3 gallons of juice.

Explanation:

This question can be solved using a rule of three.

Each pint has 0.125 gallons. How many pints are 3 gallons?

1 pint - 0.125 gallons

x pints - 3 gallons


0.125x = 3


x = (3)/(0.125)


x = 24

So Sara can fill 24 pint bottles completly with 3 gallons of juice.
