Question

Is 1quart = 2pints a conversion factor?

Answer 1

a factor =1, so if you take (1 quart)/(2 pints) =1, then (1 quart)/(2 pints) is your conversion factor. You can use this conversion factor in any equation by multiplying it in.

for example, how many pints can you get from 3.5 quarts? 3.5quarts = x pints,
you can then multiply in your conversion factor on the left side because it just equals 1,
: 3.5 quarts /((1 quart)/(2 pints)) = x pints, which can be re-written to be 3.5 quarts * 2pints/quart = 7 pints = x

Answer 2

so.. yes it is?

Answer 3

yes...
