Answer:

[tex]1\ gallon = 128\ fl\ oz[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\frac{1}{2}\ gallon => 8\ cups[/tex]

[tex]32\ fl\ oz => 4\ cups[/tex]

Required:

Relationship between gallon and ounces

[tex]\frac{1}{2}\ gallon => 8\ cups[/tex] -- (1)

[tex]32\ fl\ oz => 4\ cups[/tex] -- (2)

Multiply 2 by 2

[tex]2 * 32\ fl\ oz => 4\ cups * 2[/tex]

[tex]64\ fl\ oz => 8\ cups[/tex] --- (3)

The expressions in (1) and (3) are equivalent to 8 cups;

They can be combined to give:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}\ gallon = 64\ fl\ oz[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 2

[tex]2 * \frac{1}{2}\ gallon = 64\ fl\ oz * 2[/tex]

[tex]1\ gallon = 128\ fl\ oz[/tex]
