The term "a fifth" refers to one fifth of a gallon. One fifth of a gallon = 750ml. Therefore, a fifth of Hennessy = One 750ml bottle of Hennessy. :-)
Not quite. A pint is a half of a quart, or QUARTer-gallon. A "fifth" is a fifth of a gallon, so a pint is an eighth of a gallon, while a half of a fifth would be one-tenth.
Oh, dude, you're making me do math now? Alright, so a half gallon is 64 fluid ounces, and a fifth of liquor is 25.6 fluid ounces. So, if you divide 64 by 25.6, you get 2.5 fifths of liquor in a half gallon. But who's really counting when you're just trying to have a good time, right?
A "fifth" of liquor was 1/5 of a U.S. gallon (128 ounces) or 4/5 of a U.S. quart (32 ounces). So 128/5=25.6 ounces or (4/5)*32=25.6 ounces. The current bottles are 750 ml or 25.36 ounces.
A fifth is a fifth of a gallon, a pint is an eighth of a gallon. So the fifth is larger
assuming you're just talking about fluid, there are 2 and 1/3 fifths in a half gallon. a fifth is 750 ml, where a half gallon in 1.75L or, 1750ml, in regard to spirits. This isn't a true half gallon though, it's actually about 5 fluid ounces short, but American metrics say close enough.
yes
Nevermind... Yes it is. A fifth is 757ml which is 1/5th of a gallon
1/5th of a US Gallon. Takes Five fifths to equal 1 gallon.
there are eight half-pints in a half-gallon
Well, darling, a gallon has 16 cups, so one fifth of a gallon would be 3.2 cups. So, if you're looking to measure out a fifth of a gallon, you'll need to grab yourself 3 and a smidge cups. Happy measuring, honey!
Marketing. Have you weighed a pound of coffee lately?
That is 750 ml.
