Use the following measurement equivalents to determine if Roger can use the 8-liter bowl to mix all the ingredients for the punch. 1 liter is about 4.23 cups, 2.11 pints, 1.06 quarts, and 0.26 gallons. Show your work.
To determine if Roger can use the 8-liter bowl to mix all the ingredients for the punch, we need to convert the volume of the bowl into different units using the given measurement equivalents.
1 liter is about 4.23 cups, so to convert liters to cups, we can multiply the number of liters by 4.23.
8 liters * 4.23 cups/liter = 33.84 cups
Next, we can convert liters to other units as well:
- 2.11 pints/liter
- 1.06 quarts/liter
- 0.26 gallons/liter
To convert liters to pints, we can multiply the number of liters by 2.11:
8 liters * 2.11 pints/liter = 16.88 pints
To convert liters to quarts, we can multiply the number of liters by 1.06:
8 liters * 1.06 quarts/liter = 8.48 quarts
To convert liters to gallons, we can multiply the number of liters by 0.26:
8 liters * 0.26 gallons/liter = 2.08 gallons
Therefore, based on the conversions:
- The 8-liter bowl is equivalent to approximately 33.84 cups, 16.88 pints, 8.48 quarts, and 2.08 gallons of volume.
Since the volume of the bowl is larger than the volume needed for the punch in any of the unit conversions, Roger can use the 8-liter bowl to mix all the ingredients for the punch.
