Question

Steve Rogers drinks 4.5 gallons of milk per day. Each bottle contains 16.5 fluid ounces. The fluid ounces of milk does he drink per day is

  1. 65.75 fluid ounces
  2. 74.25 fluid ounces
  3. 742.5 fluid ounces
  4. 72.25 fluid ounces

hintHint:

In the question it is given that Steve drinks 4.5 gallons of milk per day and each bottle contains 16.5 fluid ounces. So to get the total fluid ounces of milk that Steve drinks per day will be the product of the number of gallons of milk and the fluid ounces that each bottle contains.

The correct answer is: 74.25 fluid ounces


Step by step solution:
Given,
Number of gallons of milk Steve drinks = 4.5
Fluid ounces contained in each bottle of milk = 16.5
Therefore, fluid ounces of milk Steve drinks per day =16.5 * 4.5                                                                                     = 74.25
Thus, option (b) is the correct option.

Another approach to the question could be that we add the amount of milk each bottle contains (fluid ounces) 4.5 times, i.e., the number of gallons of milk Steve drinks.
Thus fluid ounces of milk Steve drinks per day = 16.5 + 16.5 +16.5 +16.5 + (16.5/2)   [here we divide the last 16.5 by 2 since it is given 4.5 ] = 74.25 fluid ounces .
Thus, option (b) is the correct option.

A bag of grass seed weighs 5.8 pounds. Calculate the pounds 2.5 bags would weigh.

Another approach to the question could be that we could add 5.8 pounds, i.e., the weight of one bag 2.5 (number of bags to be weighed) times.
Thus, the weight of 2.5 bags = 5.8 + 5.8 + (5.8÷2)  pounds
= 14.5 pounds
Hence, option (c) is the correct option.

If each shirt costs $6.90 and you buy 5 of them, then the total cost is _______

Another approach to the question might be that we can just add $6.90 five times since 5 shirts are bought.
Therefore, the total cost = $ (6.90+6.90+6.90+6.90+6.90)
= $ 34.50
Thus, total cost would be $34.50 which is option (a)
