E.
1 gallon
D. 2 gallons (1 gallon = 128 fluid ounces, so 2 gallons = 256 fluid ounces)
To determine which of the following measurements are greater than 130 fluid ounces, we need to convert each measurement to fluid ounces and then compare them to 130.
A. 5 quarts: 1 quart is equal to 32 fluid ounces, so 5 quarts is equal to 5*32 = 160 fluid ounces. 160 is greater than 130.
B. 16 cups: 1 cup is equal to 8 fluid ounces, so 16 cups is equal to 16*8 = 128 fluid ounces. 128 is not greater than 130.
C. 9 pints: 1 pint is equal to 16 fluid ounces, so 9 pints is equal to 9*16 = 144 fluid ounces. 144 is greater than 130.
D. 2 gallons: 1 gallon is equal to 128 fluid ounces, so 2 gallons is equal to 2*128 = 256 fluid ounces. 256 is greater than 130.
E. 1 gallon: 1 gallon is equal to 128 fluid ounces. 128 is not greater than 130.
So, the measurements that are greater than 130 fluid ounces are A. 5 quarts, C. 9 pints, and D. 2 gallons.
