Verified step by step guidance1
Identify the conversion factor between pints and ounces. In the US customary system, 1 pint is equivalent to 16 ounces.
Write down the conversion relationship: \(1\ \text{pint} = 16\ \text{ounces}\).
Set up the conversion for 3 pints to ounces by multiplying the number of pints by the conversion factor: \(3\ \text{pints} \times \frac{16\ \text{ounces}}{1\ \text{pint}}\).
Perform the multiplication of the numbers (without calculating the final value here): \(3 \times 16\) to find the total ounces.
Conclude that the product from the previous step gives the number of ounces equivalent to 3 pints.
