Answer (2)

To find the correct answer to the given question, it is important to bring both the units to liter or gallon. Let us convert the half gallon milk to liter. We already know that 1 gallon = 3.785 liter Then 1/2 gallon = 3.785/2 liter = 1.89 liter From the above deduction we can conclude that the 2 liter juice bottle will hold more.

A half-gallon milk jug holds approximately 1.89 liters, while a 2-liter juice bottle holds exactly 2 liters. Therefore, the 2-liter juice bottle holds more liquid than the half-gallon milk jug.
