Steps to Solve

Convert Cups to Pints (Question 6)
To convert from cups to pints, we use the conversion factor:
$$ 1 \text{ cup} = 0.5 \text{ pints} $$
For 20 cups, the conversion to pints is calculated as follows:
$$ 20 \text{ cups} \times 0.5 \text{ pints/cup} = 10 \text{ pints} $$ -
Convert Cups to Quarts (Question 7)
To convert from cups to quarts, we understand that:
$$ 1 \text{ quart} = 4 \text{ cups} $$
So, we need to first convert cups to quarts by rearranging the conversion:
$$ 1 \text{ cup} = \frac{1}{4} \text{ quarts} $$
For 48 cups, the conversion to quarts is calculated as follows:
$$ 48 \text{ cups} \times \frac{1 \text{ quart}}{4 \text{ cups}} = 12 \text{ quarts} $$ -
Convert Quarts to Pints (Question 8)
To convert from quarts to pints, we use the conversion factor:
$$ 1 \text{ quart} = 2 \text{ pints} $$
For 13 quarts, the conversion to pints is calculated as follows:
$$ 13 \text{ quarts} \times 2 \text{ pints/quart} = 26 \text{ pints} $$

12 quarts
-
26 pints
More Information
- 1 cup equals 0.5 pints, meaning there are 2 cups in a pint.
- 1 quart consists of 4 cups, and therefore, it equals 2 pints due to the conversion factors.
- These unit conversions are helpful in cooking and recipe adjustments.
Tips
- Confusing the conversion rates between cups, pints, and quarts, which can lead to applying the wrong multiplier.
- Not keeping track of units while performing calculations, potentially resulting in an answer with incorrect units.
