Mr. Cruz fills a 3-gallon water cooler for a family picnic. He brings plastic cups that each hold 12 ounces of water. How many plastic cups can Mr. Cruz completely fill with the water from the cooler?

Hi!

For starters, there are 128 ounces in a gallon. Knowing there are 3 gallons we want to multiply this by 3. 128 x 3 = 384 ounces.

Now, each cup can hole 12 ounces. Therefore we want to divide 384 by 12. 384/12 = 32. Therefore Mr. Cruz can completely fill 32 cups with water from the cooler.

Hope this helps! :D
