Zorluk: KolayUS Customary Capacity and Volume

A food service manager is organizing supplies based on capacity. Arrange the following containers of cooking oil in order from the smallest volume to the largest volume.

  1. 1A small bottle containing 1010 fluid ounces
  2. 2A jar containing 22 cups
  3. 3A large pitcher containing 22 quarts
  4. 4A bulk jug containing 11 gallon

Cevap

The correct sequence from smallest to largest is: the 1010 fluid ounce bottle, the 22 cup jar, the 22 quart pitcher, and the 11 gallon jug.
The correct order is determined by converting all container measurements to a single standard unit, such as fluid ounces. The bottle (1010 fluid ounces) is the smallest. Next is the jar (22 cups), which equals 1616 fluid ounces. Then comes the pitcher (22 quarts), which is 6464 fluid ounces. Finally, the bulk jug (11 gallon) is the largest at 128128 fluid ounces.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify a common unit of measurement to compare all the containers.
Fluid ounces is the smallest and most direct base unit to use for comparison.
Converting all volumes to fluid ounces allows for an accurate numerical comparison of capacities.
2
Evaluate the capacity of the small bottle.
The bottle holds 1010 fluid ounces.
It is already provided in the target base unit.
3
Convert the capacity of the jar (22 cups) into fluid ounces.
2×8=162 \times 8 = 16 fluid ounces.
Standard US capacity conversion states that 11 cup is equal to 88 fluid ounces.
4
Convert the capacity of the pitcher (22 quarts) into fluid ounces.
2×32=642 \times 32 = 64 fluid ounces.
Standard US capacity conversion states that 11 quart is equal to 3232 fluid ounces.
5
Convert the capacity of the bulk jug (11 gallon) into fluid ounces.
11 gallon equals 128128 fluid ounces.
Standard US capacity conversion states that 11 gallon contains exactly 128128 fluid ounces.
6
Order the converted numerical values from smallest to largest.
10<16<64<12810 < 16 < 64 < 128.
This mathematically corresponds to the original sequence of containers: bottle, jar, pitcher, jug.
