What is the maximum number of half - pint bottles of cream that can be filled with a 4-gallon can of cream? (2pt. = 1qt. and 4qt. = 1gal.)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
D
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{4 gal}} \cr
& {\text{ = (4}} \times {\text{4)qt}} \cr
& {\text{ = 16 qt}} \cr
& {\text{ = }}\left( {16 \times 2} \right){\text{pt}} \cr
& {\text{ = 32 pt}} \cr
& \therefore {\text{Number of botteles}} \cr
& {\text{ = }}\frac{{32}}{{\frac{1}{2}}} \cr
& {\text{ = 64}} \cr} $$
