Answer:
7 gallons 4 pints
Step-by-step explanation:
2 pints = 1 quart and 4 quarts = 1 gallon, and so 8 pints = 1 gallon
Write and solve an equation of proportions to answer this question:
8 pints 1 gal
--------------- = -----------
62 pints x
Cross-multiplying, we get 8x = 62, or 7 1/2.
That's 7 gallons 4 pints.
