Julius is buying refreshments for brunch. He needs to buy a total of 5
gallons of drinks.
a. If he buys at least two containers of each drink, what
combination of drinks can he buy to equal exactly 5 gallons?

Respuesta :

so the choices are:
1 pint of 2% milk
1 quart of orange juice
1 cup of chocolate milk
1 quart of lemonade

1 gallon = 4 quarts = 8 pints = 16 cups

to make up to 5 gallons exactly n 2 containers each, we will start w the bigger containers

8 each of lemonade and orange juice will be 8+8=16 quarts = 16/4 gallons = 4 gallons

so 1 gallon left for the 2 milks
4 pint of 2% milk = 4/8 gallon = 1/2 gallon; plus
8 cup of chocolate milk = 8/16 = 1/2 gallon will be one gallon total

there are other possible combinations but here is one:

4 pint of 2% milk 
8 quart of orange juice 
8 cup of chocolate milk
8 quart of lemonade

for 5 gallons total
