Jose is making a fruit drink for a party.

Question

He needs to make 6 gallons of the fruit drink.
37.5% of the fruit drink is apple juice.
Apple juice only comes in 64-fluid ounce bottles. Each bottle costs $2.29.
How much does the apple juice cost for the 6 gallons of fruit drink?

Answer 1

6 gal * .375 = 2.25 gal aj needed
1 gallon = 8 pints
so we need 2.25 * 8 = 18 pints of apple juice
A pint is a pound the world around
so we need 18 *16 = 288 oz of apple juice
288 oz ( 1 bottle / 64 oz) = 4.5 bottles
well we can not buy half a bottle I guess so 5 bottles
5 bottles * 2.29 / bottle = 11.45
