King Gallon had 4 Queens (Quarts). Each Queen had 2 Princesses (Pints). Each Princess had 2 Cats (Cups).

Explanation

This is a memory technique to help in remembering 1 gallon = 4 quarts, 1 quart = 2 pints, 1 pint = 2 cups

Example: 2 gallons = 8 quarts (2 × 4) = 16 pints (8 × 2) = 32 cups (16 × 2).

Variation

• This can also be drawn as a large G with 4 Q's inside. 2 P's go inside each of the Q's, and 2 C's go inside of each of the P's.
