convert gallons to quarts

Question

james was given the job of making sure there was enough water for his family's eight cows. because a dairy cow requires 10 to 30 gallons of water each day, it wasa a vvery big job. the bucket james used only held 2 quarts of water. how many times would he have to take water to the drinking trough each day if each cow drank 15 gallons of water?

Answer 1

(8 cows)(15 gal / 1 cow) (4 qt / 1 gal) = 480 qt of water needed

 

(480 qt)(1 bucket / 2 qt) = 240 buckets must be hauled to the trough
