Answer:
Edgardo would use the container 160 times to fill.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Edgardo uses a container to fill the 10 gallon cooler.
If he uses a one cup container.
Now, to find the times it would take to fill the 10 gallon container.
As, the capacity of container = 1 cup.
And, the capacity of cooler = 10 gallon.
So, we use conversion factor to find the times the container to fill the cooler:
1 gallon = 16 cups.
10 gallon = [tex]10\times 16\ cups.[/tex]
10 gallon = 160 cups.
Thus, to fill the 10 gallon cooler 160 cups of container needed.
And, the container is of 1 cup.
So, to get the times he would use the container we divide 160 by 1:
[tex]160\div 1=160.[/tex]
Hence, 160 times Edgardo would use the 1 cup container to fill the 10 gallon cooler.
Therefore, Edgardo would use the container 160 times to fill.
