Edgar has a birdbath that holds 3 quarts of water. He only wants to fill it 3/4 full. How many 1-pint containers does it take to fil up the birdbath? How can he fill it with pints and cup containers? Explain.

Respuesta :

Answer:

See below ~

Step-by-step explanation:

Unit Conversion :

1 quart = 2 pints

1 quart = 4 cups

He wants the 3 quart birdbath to be 3/4 filled.

Hence,

  • No. of pint containers = 3 x 2 x 3/4
  • No. of pint containers = 6 x 3/4
  • No. of pint containers = 4.5 ≈ 5 (nearest whole number)

He can fill it with 4.5 pints and using cups :

  • No. of cups = 3 x 4 x 3/4
  • No. of cups = 3 x 3
  • No. of cups = 9 cups
