Q. The double number lines show the ratio of cups to gallons.\newlineHow many cups are in 33 gallons?\newlinecups
  1. Establishing the ratio: First, we need to establish the ratio of cups to gallons. Typically, there are 1616 cups in 11 gallon. This is a standard conversion in the US measurement system.
  2. Calculating cups in 33 gallons: Now, we need to calculate how many cups are in 33 gallons using the established ratio. Since there are 1616 cups in 11 gallon, we can multiply the number of gallons by the number of cups per gallon.\newlineCalculation: 3 gallons×16cupsgallon=48 cups3 \text{ gallons} \times 16 \frac{\text{cups}}{\text{gallon}} = 48 \text{ cups}
  3. Checking the calculation: Finally, we should check our calculation for any possible errors. We know that the ratio is 1616 cups to 11 gallon, and we have multiplied the number of gallons (3)(3) by the number of cups per gallon (16)(16) correctly.
