Question

A gallon of lemonade contains one cup of sugar. How many tablespoons of sugar are in 1.5 pints of lemonade?

Answer 1

the number of table spoons of sugar is 48

Explanation:

The computation of the number of table spoons of sugar is shown below:

As we know that

1 cup = 16 tablespoon = 8 ounces

1 gallon = 4 quarts

1 pint = 2 cups = 16 ounces

1 quart = 4 cups (2 pints) = 32 ounces

Given that

One gallon = one cup of sugar

One gallon = 16 tablespoons

Now for 1.5 pints, it is

1.5 pints = 3 cups

= 16 × 3

= 48 tablespoons

Hence, the number of table spoons of sugar is 48
