Answer: 3 quart
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Jason poured 1 gallon 1 quart of water into an empty 2 gallon bucket
1 gallon can be written as 4 quart
So, 2 gallon can be written as 8 quart
Subtract 1 gallon 1 quart(5 quart) from 2 gallon(8 quart) to get the volume added
So, 3 quart of water must be added to reach 2 gallon capacity.
Answer: x = 0.3
Step-by-step explanation:
12x-18=-15+6x
6x = 3
x = 1/2 or 0.5

To first find the answer to this, let's find a common denominator between each fraction. The denominator is the bottom number of a fraction.
To find the common denominator, let's factor out each of our denominators 5 times to see if they have a common number.
4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20
2: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10
They both appear to have the smallest common denominator of 4, so let's use 4.
We already have 1/4 with a denominator of 4, but not 1/2.
2 x 2 = 4, so multiply the numerator and the denominator of 1/2 by 2.
1 x 2 = 2
2 x 2 = 4
Your new fraction is 2/4.
Our expression now is:
-2 1/4 + 5 2/4
or (in simpler terms)
5 2/4 - 2 1/4
Subtract the fractions first.
2/4 - 1/4 = 1/4
Now subtract the whole numbers.
5 - 2 = 3
You are left with:
3 1/4
I hope this helps!
To get the answer, all you have to do is 715 ÷ 55 which equals 13 (hours)
