Q:

Yard is to Inch as Quart is to

A) Milk B) Gallon
C) Liquid D) Ounce
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Ounce

Explanation:

Yard is to Inch as Quart is to Ounce.

Because Yard and Inch are units of measurement Where Yard is larger than Inch i.e, 1 Yard = 36 Inches.

So, here Quart and Ounce are also units of measurement where Quart is larger than Ounce i.e, 1 Quart = 32 Ounces.

Gallon is not correct because Gallon is larger than Quart and Milk and Liquid are not units of measurement.

So, Ounce is correct.
