Given :

Water drank by sasha during dance practice = 2½ pints or 5/2 pints

We know, 1 pint = 2 cups

So, 5/2 × 2 = 5 cups

water drank by sasha on the way home = ½ pints

so, total water drank by sasha = 5+ 1/2

= (10+1)/2

= 11/2 

= 11/2 cups

We know, 1 cup = 8 ounces

So, 11/2 × 8 = 44 ounces
