Given :

Mr. Rivera pours 2 cups of blue paint into a jar for each art station.

1 cup = 8 ounces.

1 gallon = 128 ounces.

To Find :

How many jars can he fill with 1 gallon of blue paint.

Solution :

Since, a jar is filled with 2 cups.

1 jar = 2 × 8 = 16 ounces.

So, number of jars required to fill 1 gallon of blue paint is :


n=(128)/(16)\\\\n=8

Therefore, 8 jars are required to fill 1 gallon of blue paint.

Hence, this is the required solution.
