Question

Alex made fruit punch for a party. He mixed 3 gallons of orange juice, 3 quarts of pineapple juice, 5 pints of cranberry juice, and 6 cups of apple juice. How many quarts did he make in all?

Answer 1

Answer:

18.25 quarts

Step-by-step explanation:

1. For the Orange Juice,

1 gallon = 4 quarts

so, 3 gallons = 12 quarts

Therefore, 12 quarts of Orange Juice were added.

2. For the Pineapple Juice,

3 quarts of Pineapple Juice were added.

3. For the Cranberry Juice,

1 pint = 0.5 quart

so, 5 pints = 2.5 quarts.

Therefore, 2.5 quarts of Cranberry Juice were added.

4. For the Apple Juice,

1 cup = 0.25 quart

so, 6 cups = 0.75 quart.

Therefore, 0.75 quart of Apple Juice were added.

Sum of all the Added Juices = 12 + 3 + 2.5 + 0.75 = 18.25 quarts.
