Question:

A bucket of water was 1/2 full, but it still had 3 and 3/5 gallons of water in it. How much water would be in one fully filled bucket?

Answer:

7 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The bucket was halfway full. It still had 3 3/5 gallons in it. So all you'd have to do is multiply 3 3/5 by 2. Here is the actual work for proof:

3 3/5 × 2 =

18/5 × 2 =

18 × 2

5 × 1 =

36/5 = 7 1/5.
