2. which size container holds more, 3 pints or 3 quarts?

do you know how?
for 3 - 5, convert each unit.

1. 2 cups = ______ fluid ounces
2. \\(\frac{1}{2}\\) gallon = ______ pints
3. 5 pints = ______ cups

independent practice
in 6 - 8, write > or < in each \\(\bigcirc\\) to compare the measures.

1. 2 pints \\(\bigcirc\\) 2 gallons
2. 5 quarts \\(\bigcirc\\) 8 pints
3. 10 cups \\(\bigcirc\\) 2 quar

for 9 - 12, convert each unit.

1. 7 quarts = ______ cups
2. 12 gallons = ______ quarts
3. 7 pints = ______ fluid ounces
4. \\(\frac{3}{4}\\) gallon = ______ pints

for 13 - 14, convert each unit.

Explanation:

Question 3:

Step1: Recall the conversion factor. 1 cup = 8 fluid ounces.

Step2: Multiply the number of cups by the conversion factor. So, 2 cups * 8 fluid ounces/cup = 16 fluid ounces.

Step1: Recall the conversion factors. 1 gallon = 4 quarts, and 1 quart = 2 pints. So, 1 gallon = 4 * 2 = 8 pints.

Step2: Multiply the number of gallons by the number of pints per gallon. So, (1/2) gallon * 8 pints/gallon = 4 pints.

Step1: Recall the conversion factor. 1 pint = 2 cups.

Step2: Multiply the number of pints by the conversion factor. So, 5 pints * 2 cups/pint = 10 cups.

Answer:

16
