Marissa bought 2 1/4 gallons of orange juice to make punch. How many qts of oj did she buy?
Marissa bought 6 fewer pints of soda than oj. How many cups of soda did she buy?
To find out how many quarts of orange juice Marissa bought, we need to convert the given measurement from gallons to quarts. We know that 1 gallon is equal to 4 quarts.
Given that Marissa bought 2 1/4 gallons of orange juice, we need to convert 2 gallons to quarts and add 1/4 gallon (which is 1 quart):
2 gallons * 4 quarts/gallon = 8 quarts
1/4 gallon = 1 quart
Adding these together, Marissa bought a total of 8 + 1 = 9 quarts of orange juice.
Now let's move on to the second question about the soda:
We know that 1 gallon is equal to 8 pints and 1 pint is equal to 2 cups.
Since Marissa bought 6 fewer pints of soda than orange juice, we subtract 6 from the 8 pints of orange juice:
8 pints - 6 pints = 2 pints
Now we convert 2 pints of soda to cups:
2 pints * 2 cups/pint = 4 cups
Therefore, Marissa bought a total of 4 cups of soda.
One Gallon = 4 quarts
One pint = 2 cups
one Quart = 2 pints
