Question
The capacity of a barrel is 12 gallons. The capacity of a small pail is 3 quarts. It takes __________pails of water to fill a barrel.
- 7
- 13
- 16
- 19
Hint:
1 gallon=4 quarts
Divide the capacity of the barrel with the capacity of the pail to find the number of pails required
The correct answer is: 16
1 gallon=4 quarts
Capacity of the barrel=12 gallons=124=48 quarts
Capacity of the pail=3 quarts
Therefore the number of small pails required to fill the barrel will be:=16
So it will take 16 pails of water to fill a barrel.
