Zorluk: KolayUS Customary Capacity and Volume

A maintenance crew purchases 88 gallons of epoxy paint for a warehouse floor. They need to pour the paint into smaller trays that each hold exactly 22 quarts. How many trays can they fill completely?

Cevap: 16 trays

Cevap

16 trays
First, find the total number of quarts available. Because there are 4 quarts in 1 gallon, 8 gallons is equal to 32 quarts. Next, divide the 32 total quarts by the 2-quart capacity of each tray. This yields exactly 16 filled trays.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Convert the total paint volume from gallons to quarts.
32 quarts
The trays are measured in quarts, so the total paint volume must be converted to the same unit. (8 gallons × 4 quarts/gallon = 32 quarts)
2
Divide the total number of quarts by the capacity of a single tray.
16 trays
This determines how many 2-quart portions can be distributed from the 32 quarts of paint. (32 quarts ÷ 2 quarts/tray = 16 trays)
