Final answer:
To convert from tablespoons to pints, we can use the given conversion factor of 4 tablespoons in 1/4 cup and 2 cups in 1 pint. We can set up a series of conversions to find the equivalent amount of tablespoons in 1 pint.
Explanation:
To convert from tablespoons to pints, we can use the given conversion factor of 4 tablespoons in 1/4 cup and 2 cups in 1 pint. Since 1/4 cup is equal to 4 tablespoons, we can multiply the number of tablespoons by 1/4 cup per 4 tablespoons to find the equivalent amount in cups. Then, we can multiply the number of cups by 1 pint per 2 cups to find the equivalent amount in pints.
Let's say we have x tablespoons. To convert to cups, we multiply x tablespoons by 1/4 cup per 4 tablespoons:
x tablespoons * (1/4 cup per 4 tablespoons) = (x/4) cups
Now, to convert to pints, we multiply (x/4) cups by 1 pint per 2 cups:
(x/4) cups * (1 pint per 2 cups) = x/8 pints
Therefore, there are x/8 tablespoons in 1 pint.
