Greg made 9 gallons of chili for a chili dinner. Each bowl can hold 2 full ladles of chili. A full ladle holds 10 ounces. What is the greatest number of bowls Greg can fill with Chili? Please show work.
A. 57
B. 58
C. 115
D. 116
The answer is A There are 128 ounces in a gallon. So multiply that by 9 to get 1152 ounces in 9 gallons. Divide that by ten because each ladle is 10 ounces. Divide that by 2 since there are two ladle scoops in each bowl. You get 57.6 which you can't have a .6 bowl so it is just 57
