The capacity problem

Report a typo

Fun fact: the units of capacity in the USA can be compared with binary. Take a look:

1 gallon = 2 half gallons = 4 quarts = 8 pints = 16 cups

In other words, if we want to calculate, how many gallons, quarts and pints are there in 19 cups, we can just use one of the converting methods and the table below:

Gallon	Half of Gallon	Quart	Pint	Cup
				19

So, tell us, how can you represent 19 cups?

Select one option from the list

One gallon, one quart, one cup

One gallon, one pint, one cup

One gallon and a half, one quart, one cup

One gallon and a half, one pint, one cup
