There are 2 pints in 1 quart and 4 quarts in 1 gallon. At the store, 10 pints of orange juice cost the same as 2 gallons. Evan wants to know which quantity contains more orange juice, 10 pints or 2 gallons.

To compare the quantities, we first need to determine how many pints are in 2 gallons.

Since there are 2 pints in 1 quart and 4 quarts in 1 gallon, there are 2 x 4 = 8 pints in 1 gallon.

Therefore, there are 8 x 2 = 16 pints in 2 gallons.

Now we can compare the quantities:

10 pints vs 16 pints

Since 16 pints is greater than 10 pints, 2 gallons contains more orange juice than 10 pints.
how many quarts is 10 pints?
Since there are 2 pints in 1 quart, you can divide 10 pints by 2 pints per quart to find out how many quarts 10 pints is equal to:

10 pints / 2 pints per quart = 5 quarts

Therefore, 10 pints is equal to 5 quarts.
