The Correct Answer and Explanation is:
Correct Answers:
- 2.25 gal = 9 qt
- 5 c = 40 oz
- 40 oz = 0.3125 gal
- 3 cups = 48 tbsp
- 1.073 L = 1073 mL
- 49 oz = 6.125 c
- 16 cups = 8 pints
- 10 pints = 20 cups
- 5 quarts = 20 cups
- 40 quarts = 160 cups
- 12 c = 6 pt
- 1000 g = 1 kg
- 4 c = 64 tbsp
- 56 tbsp = 3.5 c
- 5 tbsp = 15 tsp
Explanation:
Unit conversion follows fixed relationships among measurement units. For example, gallons to quarts operates on the rule that 1 gallon equals 4 quarts. Thus, multiplying 2.25 gallons by 4 results in 9 quarts. Similarly, 1 cup holds 8 fluid ounces, so multiplying 5 cups by 8 gives 40 ounces.
Fluid ounces to gallons is the reverse: 128 ounces equal 1 gallon, so dividing 40 ounces by 128 gives 0.3125 gallons. With cups to tablespoons, each cup contains 16 tablespoons, so 3 cups becomes 48 tablespoons.
A liter equals 1000 milliliters, so multiplying 1.073 by 1000 results in 1073 milliliters. Since 8 ounces equal 1 cup, dividing 49 ounces by 8 gives 6.125 cups.
In volume units, 2 cups make a pint, thus 16 cups is equivalent to 8 pints, and 10 pints result in 20 cups. A quart holds 4 cups, meaning 5 quarts equals 20 cups, while 40 quarts equals 160 cups.
Again, 2 cups make a pint, so 12 cups yield 6 pints. For metric units, 1000 grams make 1 kilogram. Cups to tablespoons follows the rule: 1 cup = 16 tablespoons, thus 4 cups equal 64 tablespoons.
Reversing that, 56 tablespoons divided by 16 gives 3.5 cups. Lastly, 1 tablespoon equals 3 teaspoons, so 5 tablespoons equal 15 teaspoons.
Each conversion involves multiplication or division, depending on the direction of conversion, and relies on memorized or referenced standard values across US customary and metric systems.
