Can someone help me with this?
Convert: 48lb/gal=____oz/qt
1 lb. = 16 oz.
1 gal = 4 qt.
768 oz/4 qt.
198 oz / qt
Ms.Sue wouldn't it be 192?
Sorry -- I goofed.
Yes, it's 192.
Ok no problem thank you!
You're welcome.
Certainly! To convert from pounds per gallon (lb/gal) to ounces per quart (oz/qt), you can follow these steps:
1. Understand the conversion factors:
- 1 pound (lb) is equal to 16 ounces (oz)
- 1 gallon (gal) is equal to 4 quarts (qt)
2. Set up the conversion as a fraction:
- Start with the given value: 48 lb/gal
- Multiply it by the conversion factors in a way that cancels out the unwanted units. Place the unit you want to convert to, which is ounces per quart (oz/qt), in the numerator of the conversion factor ratio.
Here's how the conversion looks like:
48 lb/gal * (16 oz/1 lb) * (1 gal/4 qt)
3. Simplify and calculate:
- Multiply the numbers in the numerator: 48 * 16 * 1 = 768
- Multiply the numbers in the denominator: 1 * 1 * 4 = 4
- Divide the numerator by the denominator: 768 / 4 = 192
Therefore, 48 lb/gal is equal to 192 oz/qt.
So, the answer is 192 oz/qt.
