Question

Use benchmarks to estimate the capacity of a bag of sugar.

Option #1: 10 cups

Option #2: 10 fluid ounces

(1 point)

Answer 1

Option #1 is the more accurate benchmark for estimating the capacity of a bag of sugar. Sugar is typically measured in cups when used for baking and cooking, so using a benchmark of 10 cups would give a better estimate of the capacity of the bag. 10 fluid ounces would not be an appropriate benchmark for estimating the capacity of a bag of sugar.
