How many fluid ounces are in 2 1/2 gallons?
Correct answer
C
Rationale
To convert gallons to fluid ounces, we know that 1 gallon is equal to 128 fluid ounces. Therefore, to find out how many fluid ounces are in 2 1/2 gallons, we multiply 2.5 (2 1/2) by 128.
2.5 * 128 = 320
So, there are 320 fluid ounces in 2 1/2 gallons.
Rationale:
A: 300 oz is incorrect because it is less than the correct answer of 320 oz.
B: 3,200 oz is incorrect as it is too large for the amount of 2 1/2 gallons.
C: 320 oz is correct as calculated.
D: 51.2 oz is incorrect as it does not accurately represent the conversion of 2 1/2 gallons to fluid ounces.
