Liquid Measurement: Cups, Pints, Quarts, and Gallons (Lesson)

How the Units Relate

  • 1 pint = 2 cups
  • 1 quart = 2 pints (or 4 cups)
  • 1 gallon = 4 quarts (or 8 pints or 16 cups)

Example 1: How many pints are in 5 quarts?
Since 1 quart = 2 pints,
5 quarts = 5 × 2 pints = 10 pints

Example 2: How many cups are in 2 quarts?
Since 1 quart = 4 cups,
2 quarts = 2 × 4 cups = 8 cups

Example 3: How many quarts are in 2 gallons?
Since 1 gallon = 4 quarts,
2 gallons = 2 × 4 quarts = 8 quarts

Example 4: How many pints are in 12 cups?
Since 1 pint = 2 cups,
12 cups ÷ 2 = 6 pints

Example 5: How many gallons are in 20 quarts?
Since 1 gallon = 4 quarts,
20 quarts ÷ 4 = 5 gallons
