Ryan has 3 1/2​​ pints of milk. He uses 1 1/2​​ cups of milk to make Recipe A and 1 1/2​​ cups of milk to make Recipe B.

Question

After making both recipes, how many pints of milk does Ryan have?

Answer 1

To convert cups to pints, we need to know that 1 pint is equal to 2 cups.

Ryan uses 1 1/2 cups of milk for Recipe A and 1 1/2 cups of milk for Recipe B, totaling 3 cups of milk used.

3 cups of milk is equal to 3/2 = 1 1/2 pints.

Therefore, Ryan has 3 1/2 pints - 1 1/2 pints = 2 pints of milk left after making both recipes.
