Answer:

3 1/2 gallons or 56 cups

Explanation:

1. Analyze the questions.

We have 3 gallons, and we add another 1/2 gallon. This means that our equation must be 3 + 1/2.

2. Solve.

3 + 1/2 = 3 1/2 gallons

3. Convert.

1 gallon = 16 cups

1 * 3 1/2 gallons = 16 * 3 1/2 cups

3 1/2 gallons = 56 cups
