To find out how many ounces are in 1 gallon, we can look at the relationship provided in the table.

From the table:

  • 5 gallons = 640 ounces
  • 4 gallons = 512 ounces
  • 3 gallons = 384 ounces
  • 2 gallons = 256 ounces

To find the number of ounces in 1 gallon, divide the number of ounces for a known number of gallons by that number of gallons.

Using the first row as an example:

\[ \text{Ounces per gallon} = \frac{640 \text{ ounces}}{5 \text{ gallons}} = 128 \text{ ounces per gallon} \]

Thus, there are 128 ounces in 1 gallon.
