224
330
464

Answer:- 1

Explanation:-

Solution:

\begin{aligned} 4 gal \\ =  (4 \times 4)qt \\ =  16 qt \\ = (16 \times 12) pt \\ =  32 pt \\ ∴ Number of botteles \\ = \frac{32}{\frac{1}{2}} \\ =  64 \end{aligned}

$\eqalign{ & {\text{4 gal}} \cr & {\text{ = (4}} \times {\text{4)qt}} \cr & {\text{ = 16 qt}} \cr & {\text{ = }}\left( {16 \times 12} \right){\text{pt}} \cr & {\text{ = 32 pt}} \cr & \therefore {\text{Number of botteles}} \cr & {\text{ = }}\frac{{32}}{{\frac{1}{2}}} \cr & {\text{ = 64}} \cr}$
