(22,500). and the sum will be 472,500, which is only 663.74 less than the exact number of Cubic centimeters equivalent to 1,000 wine pints, (473.163-74) 203. To convert pints into half-liters (or "metric nts" of 500 Cubic-centimeters each): Deduct 10per cent. The answer will be too small by nearly 49 pints for every 1,000 pints: arly 5 per cent. If 5 per cent be added to the answer, the sum will be mall by only 22 fluid ounces for every 1,000 pints, or II minims for Bt.
