standard_description: Measure and estimate liquid volumes and masses of objects using standard units of grams (g), kilograms (kg), and liters (l). (Excludes compound units such as cm^(3) and finding the geometric volume of a container.) Add, subtract, multiply, or divide to solve one-step word problems involving masses or volumes that are given in the same units, e.g., by using drawings (such as a beaker with a measurement scale) to represent the problem. [Excludes multiplicative comparison problems (problems involving notions of “times as much”)]

Problem 4
Dominica’s mom signs up to bring a gallon of fruit punch to the family potluck. She plans to use the following recipe:
{"table": [{"_attributes": {"align": "Center", "class": ["table", "table-bordered"], "style": "width:50%"}, "tbody": [{"tr": [{"td": [{"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "p": [{"strong": [{"_value": "Fruit Punch"}]}, {"_attributes": {"style": "margin-left:40px; text-align:left"}, "strong": [{"_value": "Ingredients:"}]}], "ul": [{"_attributes": {"style": "margin-left:40px"}, "li": [{"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:left"}, "p": [{"_value": "2 (6 ounce) cans frozen orange juice concentrate"}]}, {"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:left"}, "p": [{"_value": "2 (6 ounce) cans\u00a0frozen lemonade concentrate"}]}, {"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:left"}, "p": [{"_value": "1 (3 pint) can pineapple juice"}]}, {"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:left"}, "p": [{"_value": "3 cups water"}]}, {"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:left"}, "p": [{"_value": "1 quart 2 ounces soda"}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}
Will this recipe yield a gallon of fruit punch? If not, how much more fruit punch would she need to make? If so, how much more than a gallon will she have?
