Question 6

384 ounces are equivalent to 3 gallons.

To convert gallons to ounces, one must know that 1 gallon is equivalent to 128 ounces. Therefore, 3 gallons can be calculated as 3 times 128, which equals 384 ounces.

A) 256 oz.

This option is incorrect because 256 ounces does not accurately represent the conversion from gallons to ounces. When calculated, 3 gallons (3 x 128) equals 384 ounces, making 256 ounces significantly less than the correct amount.

B) 42 oz.

This option is also incorrect. The conversion of 3 gallons into ounces results in a much larger number. In fact, 42 ounces is vastly lower than the actual equivalent of 384 ounces, indicating a misunderstanding of the gallon to ounce conversion.

C) 128 oz.

This answer is incorrect as well. While 128 ounces represents the equivalent of 1 gallon, it does not account for the total number of ounces when converting 3 gallons, which is 384 ounces. Therefore, this option is not valid for the question posed.

D) 384 oz.

This is the correct answer. By multiplying the number of gallons (3) by the number of ounces in one gallon (128), we arrive at 384 ounces, confirming this option as the accurate conversion.

Conclusion

The correct answer, 384 ounces, is derived from the proper calculation of converting gallons to ounces, specifically for 3 gallons. All other options fail to represent the correct conversion, either being underestimated or miscalculating the total amount. Thus, option D is definitively the only accurate choice.
