One can holds $12$ ounces of soda. What is the minimum number of cans needed to provide a gallon ( $128$ ounces) of soda?

$\mathrm{(A)}\ 7\qquad \mathrm{(B)}\ 8\qquad \mathrm{(C)}\ 9\qquad \mathrm{(D)}\ 10\qquad \mathrm{(E)}\ 11$

$10$ cans would hold $120$ ounces, but $128>120$ , so $11$ cans are required. Thus, the answer is $\mathrm{(E)}$ .
