 Julian is making barbecue sauce to can. He uses 15 cups of tomato sauce, 6 cups of white vinegar, cup of honey, and cup of maple syrup. How many quart jars can he fill? How many pint jars can he fill with any leftover sauce

STEP 1:
Add up all cups of ingredients

=15 + 6 + 1 + 1
= 23 cups of ingredients


STEP 2:
convert cups to quarts
4 cups= 1 quart

=23 ÷ 4
divide total cups by # of cups in 1 quart

= 5 quarts (with 3 cups left)


STEP 3:
find number of pints with 3 cups left
2 cups= 1 pint

= 3 ÷ 2
divide total cups left by # cups in 1 pint

= 1.5 pints

*Add the number of pints in step 3 to the number of quarts in step 2.


ANSWER: He can fill 5 quarts and 1.5 pints.

Hope this helps! :)
