Step1: Find conversion factor

We know from the given pair: 5 gallons = 40 pints. So the conversion factor is $\frac{40}{5}=8$ pints per gallon.

Step2: Calculate gallons for 16 pints

Divide pints by conversion factor: $\frac{16}{8}=2$

Step3: Calculate pints for 4 gallons

Multiply gallons by conversion factor: $4 \times 8=32$

Step4: Calculate pints for 7 gallons

Multiply gallons by conversion factor: $7 \times 8=56$

Step5: Calculate gallons for 80 pints

Divide pints by conversion factor: $\frac{80}{8}=10$

Answer:
