Let’s solve each problem one by one. We’re converting between customary units of capacity: gallons (gal), quarts (qt), pints (pt), and cups (c). Here are the key conversions you need to know:
- 1 gallon = 4 quarts
- 1 quart = 2 pints
- 1 pint = 2 cups
- So, 1 quart = 4 cups
- And 1 gallon = 8 pints = 16 cups
Now let’s go row by row.
---
Row 1:
We have 1 big jug labeled “1 gal” and 5 small bottles each labeled “1 qt”.
So total = 1 gal + 5 qt
But we want the answer in
quarts.
Since 1 gal = 4 qt, then:
→ 4 qt + 5 qt =
9 qt
✔ Final for Row 1:
9 qt
---
Row 2:
We have 1 teapot labeled “1 gal” and 3 small cups each labeled “1 pt”.
Total = 1 gal + 3 pt
Answer should be in
pints.
1 gal = 8 pt → so 8 pt + 3 pt =
11 pt
✔ Final for Row 2:
11 pt
---
Row 3:
We have 1 box labeled “1 gal” and 6 small containers each labeled “1 qt”.
Total = 1 gal + 6 qt
Answer in
gallons? Wait — look at the blank: it says “___ gal”
But 6 qt is more than 1 gal? Let’s convert everything to gallons.
1 gal = 4 qt → so 6 qt = 6 ÷ 4 = 1.5 gal
Then total = 1 gal + 1.5 gal =
2.5 gal
Wait — but maybe they expect mixed numbers? Or perhaps I misread.
Looking again: The container on the right is a single cup-like thing with “___ gal” — that seems odd because a cup is tiny compared to a gallon. Maybe it’s a typo? Or maybe it’s asking for total in gallons?
Actually, looking at the layout: left side has 1 gal container + 6 qt containers → total volume. Right side shows one container with blank + unit. Probably means “write total capacity in this unit”.
In row 3, the unit shown is “gal”, so yes — convert all to gallons.
1 gal + 6 qt
6 qt = 6/4 gal = 1½ gal
Total = 1 + 1½ =
2½ gal or
2.5 gal
But since this is elementary level, probably write as fraction:
2 1/2 gal
✔ Final for Row 3:
2 1/2 gal
---
Row 4:
Left: 1 carton labeled “1 gal”
Middle: 4 small cartons each labeled “1 qt” → wait no, actually looking closely:
It says “1 gal” on big carton, then 4 smaller ones each say “1 qt”? No — wait, image description says:
“a large orange carton labeled '1 gal', four small clear glasses each labeled '1 pt', and two tall thin glasses each labeled '1 c'”
Wait — correction based on your original text description:
You wrote:
> 4 | [orange carton "1 gal"] | [four small glasses "1 pt" each] + [two tall glasses "1 c" each] | ___ fl oz
Ah! So total = 1 gal + 4 pt + 2 c
And answer must be in
fluid ounces (fl oz)
We need to convert everything to fluid ounces.
Recall:
- 1 cup = 8 fl oz
- 1 pint = 2 cups = 16 fl oz
- 1 quart = 2 pints = 32 fl oz
- 1 gallon = 4 quarts = 128 fl oz
So:
1 gal = 128 fl oz
4 pt = 4 × 16 = 64 fl oz
2 c = 2 × 8 = 16 fl oz
Total = 128 + 64 + 16 =
208 fl oz
✔ Final for Row 4:
208 fl oz
---
Row 5:
Left: 1 yellow jug labeled “1 gal”
Middle: 3 small jars each labeled “1 pt”
Right: 1 jar labeled “___ fl oz” — so again, total in fluid ounces.
Same conversion factors:
1 gal = 128 fl oz
3 pt = 3 × 16 = 48 fl oz
Total = 128 + 48 =
176 fl oz
✔ Final for Row 5:
176 fl oz
---
Final Answers Summary:
Row 1: 9 qt
Row 2: 11 pt
Row 3: 2 1/2 gal
Row 4: 208 fl oz
Row 5: 176 fl oz
──────────────────────────────────────
Final Answer:
1. 9 qt
2. 11 pt
3. 2 1/2 gal
4. 208 fl oz
5. 176 fl oz
