Suppose you bought 10 six-packs of soda, each six-pack containing six 12-ounce cans. How many gallons of soda did you buy?

First you take the amount of the six packs and multiply it by the amount of sodas in each pack.

10 x 6 = 60

Then you must multiply the quotient (answer) by the amount of ounces in each can of soda.

60 x 12 = 720

So there are 720 ounces in 10 six packs of soda ... now to find the amount of gallons in 10 six packs of soda you must divide the amount of ounces by the amount of ounces in a gallon (128 oz = 1 gallon).

720 : 128 = 5.625

So there are 5.625 gallons in 10 six packs of soda.

10 packs of soda

1 packs contains 6 sodas

10 packs contains 10*6 = 60 sodas

1 soda is 12 ounces

60 sodas = 12*60 = 720 ounces

720 ounces = 5.625 Gallons
