Gage Mclean · Answer 1

If he is gone for 2 weeks it's 14 days so you would multiply 14 days by 3.84 fluid ounces which gives you 53.76 fluid ounces. Then you subtract that from 320 fluid ounces and it gives you 266.24 fluid ounces.

Kael Perkins · Answer 2

Multiply 14 by 3.84 which equals

53.76

now take 53.76 away from 320

your answer is 266.24
