There are 2 pints in 1 quart and 4 quarts in 1 gallon. At the store, 10 pints of orange juice cost the same as 2 gallons. Sasha wants to know which quantity contains more orange juice, 10 pints or 2 gallons.

How many quarts are in 10 pints?

10 pints = [tex]$\square$[/tex] quarts


Sagot :

To determine how many quarts are in 10 pints, we start with the fact that there are 2 pints in 1 quart.

To convert pints to quarts, we use the conversion factor:
[tex]\[ \text{Number of quarts} = \frac{\text{Number of pints}}{\text{Pints per quart}} \][/tex]

Given there are 10 pints:
[tex]\[ 10 \text{ pints} = \frac{10 \text{ pints}}{2 \text{ pints per quart}} \][/tex]

Solving this, we find:
[tex]\[ 10 \text{ pints} = 5 \text{ quarts} \][/tex]

So, 10 pints is equal to 5 quarts.
