Matt puts 3 1/2 quarts of lemonade in the pitcher. He adds another 1/2 quarts. How many pints of lemonade does he have total? PLEASE SHOW WORK! :[
Thank you.
To find out how many pints of lemonade Matt has in total, we need to convert quarts to pints.
1 quart is equal to 2 pints.
First, let's determine how many pints are in 3 1/2 quarts of lemonade.
3 1/2 quarts is equal to 7/2 quarts. To convert to pints, we multiply by 2:
(7/2) x 2 = 7 pints
Next, we need to find out how many pints are in an additional 1/2 quart.
1/2 quart is equal to 1 pint.
Now, we can find the total number of pints by adding the pints from the initial amount to the pints from the additional amount:
7 pints + 1 pint = 8 pints
Therefore, Matt has a total of 8 pints of lemonade.
Now he has 4 quarts.
1 quart = 2 pints.
4 * 2 = ______ pints
