    There are 128 ounces in 1 gallon

    Step-by-step explanation:

    1,5gallons= 192 ounces

    1,5gallons= 192 ouncesScott = 3 oz per lid192 divided by 3 = 64 lids of detergent

    1,5gallons= 192 ouncesScott = 3 oz per lid192 divided by 3 = 64 lids of detergentNikki = 4oz per lid 

    1,5gallons= 192 ouncesScott = 3 oz per lid192 divided by 3 = 64 lids of detergentNikki = 4oz per lid 192 divided by 4 = 48 1/2 lids

    1,5gallons= 192 ouncesScott = 3 oz per lid192 divided by 3 = 64 lids of detergentNikki = 4oz per lid 192 divided by 4 = 48 1/2 lids64 – 48.5 = 15.5 lids more

    there is 128 fluid ounces per gallon so 1.5 gallons = 1.5 x 128 = 192 fluid ounces

    Scotts cap holds 3 ounces so 192/3 = 64

    Nikkis cap holds 4 ounces so 192/4 = 48

    64-48 = 16 more caps for Scott
