To determine how many 16.9-ounce bottles of water are in 5 gallons, you can follow these steps:
Step 1: Convert gallons to ounces.
There are 128 ounces in 1 gallon. Therefore, 5 gallons is:
5 gallons×128 ounces per gallon=640 ounces
Step 2: Determine how many 16.9-ounce bottles fit into 640 ounces.
Now, divide the total number of ounces (640 ounces) by the number of ounces in one bottle (16.9 ounces):
640 ounces ÷16.9 ounces per bottle≈37.8
So, approximately 38 bottles of 16.9 ounces of water are needed to make up 5 gallons.
