Meredith found the following partial containers of detergent in the basement: 12 quart, 114 gallons, and 34 gallon. Meredith wants to combine these into pint containers. How many will she need?

Respuesta :

Answer:

1208

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we convert each unit to its pint equivalent.

1 gallon =8 US Pint

  • 114 gallons =114 X 8 =912 Pint
  • 34 gallon =34 X 8 =272 Pint

Similarly, 1 quart =2 Pint

  • 12 quart = 12 X 2 Pint =24 Pint

Adding the three values

912+272+24=1208 Pint

Therefore, Meredith will need 1,208 Pint containers.
