Jake needs 8 cups of milk to make a chocolate shake for his family. His measuring device measures liquids by the pint. If 1 pint is equal to 2 cups, how many pints should Jake measure?
{P= pints } 1 pint 2 cups p = 8 cups 1(8) = 2 (p)8 = 2([tex] \frac{P}{2p} [/tex]) [tex] \frac{8}{2} = 4[/tex] 8 ÷ 2 = 4 So, the number of pints would have to be "4 pints"
