Question

correct
the original measurement is 14 cups. to write it as a fraction, put it over 1, \\(\frac{14c}{1}\\). in the conversion factor, cups must be in the denominator so that they cancel out. therefore the expression is \\(\frac{14c}{1} \cdot \frac{1pt}{2c}\\).
how many pints are in 14 cups?
enter your answer in the box.
14 cups = \\(square\\) pints

Explanation:

Step1: Set up conversion expression

$\frac{14\ \text{c}}{1} \times \frac{1\ \text{pt}}{2\ \text{c}}$

Step2: Cancel units and calculate

$\frac{14}{1} \times \frac{1\ \text{pt}}{2} = \frac{14}{2}\ \text{pt}$

Step3: Simplify the fraction

$7\ \text{pt}$

Answer:

7
