Weekly Challenge
October 13-17, 2003
Last week we figured out
how many dozen donuts we needed to feed 50 students. This week let's find
out how much cider to buy.
If each student drinks one cup (8 fluid ounces) of apple cider, how many
gallons
do we need to buy?
Hint: There are 4 cups in a quart.
4 quarts = 1 gallon
How many gallons of cider do we need?____________
Is there any left over?_____
Draw a picture to help solve the problem.
Show your work.
4th and 5th graders: If each gallon of cider costs $2.49, how much
will it cost?
