Tank a has a capacity of 9.5 gallons. 6 1/3 gallons of the tank's water are poured out. how many gallons of water are left in th

Advocard [28]

Answer:

Water left in tank is $3\frac{1}{6}$ gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Capacity of tank = 9.5 gallons $=\frac{95}{10}$

Water taken out of tank = $6\frac{1}{3}=\frac{19}{3}$ gallons

We have to find the water left in the tank.

Water left in the tank = Total capacity of tank - water taken out of tank

= $\frac{95}{10}-\frac{19}{3}$

Taking LCM of (3,10)= 30

$\Rightarrow \frac{95 \times 3-19 \times10}{30}$

Solving further, we get,

$\Rightarrow \frac{285-190}{30}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{95}{30}=\frac{19}{6}=3\frac{1}{6}$

Thus, Water left in tank is $3\frac{1}{6}$ gallons..
