Question

Which container holds more, a half-gallon milk jug or a 3-liter juice bottle? 2 points O 3-liter juice bottle O half-gallon milk jug Neither

Answer 1

Answer:

3-liter juice bottle

Explanation:

To compare the container we need to have the same units.

We need to know that 1 gallon is equal to 3.785 liters, so half gallon is equal to:

$0.5\text{ gallon }\times\frac{3.785\text{ Liters}}{1\text{ gallon}}=1.8925\text{ Liters}$

Now, we have 1.89 liters of milk and 3 liters of juice. Since 3 is greater than 1.89 the container that holds more is a 3-liter juice bottle.
