You can put this solution on YOUR website! a punch recipe calls for 2 quarts of ginger ale, 2 pints of orange juice, 2 pints of pineapple juice and 1 cup of lemon juice. If 4 quarts equal 8 pints, and 8 pints equal 16 cups how many pints of punch does the recipe make?
--------------------
4 qts = 8 pints
so, 2 quarts of ginger ale = 4 pints of ginger ale
------------------------------------------
8 pints = 16 cups
so, 1 cup of lemon juice = 1/2 pint of lemon juice
--------------------------------
Number of pints in the recipe:
4 pints of giner ale
2 pints of orange juoce
2 pints of pineapple juice
!/2 pint of lemon juice
