Answer: 40 cups
If you have 2.5 gallons and need to convert it to cups, you first need to know how these two units of liquid volume compare to each other in size.
There are 16 customary cups in one gallon. To find how many cups are in 2.5 gallons, you'd multiply 2.5 (the number of gallons you have) by 16 (the number of cups in one gallon).
2.5 x 16 equals 40. This tells you that 2.5 gallons is equivalent to 40 cups
Question: If one gallon is the same amount as 16 cups, how many cups equal 2.5 gallons? (Only input whole numbers.)
Explantion: 16(number of cups per gallon)×2.5(amount of gallons)
The equation would be [tex]16*2.5[/tex] and that equals 40.
Answer: 40 cups
