Tank divide by bucket

3 0

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the total amount of water a tank can hold is  14\frac{1}{2} gallons.

To find the number of 1\frac{1}{4} gallon buckets of water can be used to fill the tank we will divide the total amount of water in the tank by amount of water in one bucket.  

\text{Number of water buckets used}=\frac{\text{Total amount of water in the tank}}{\text{Amount of water in one bucket}}

Upon substituting our given values we will get,

\text{Number of water buckets used}=\frac{14\frac{1}{2} }{1\frac{1}{4}}

\text{Number of water buckets used}=\frac{\frac{29}{2} }{\frac{5}{4}}

Dividing a fraction with another fraction is same as multiplying the reciprocal of second fraction with the first fraction.  

\text{Number of water buckets used}={\frac{29}{2}}\times {\frac{4}{5}}

Therefore, all the above expressions can be used to find the number of 1\frac{1}{4} gallon buckets of water will be needed to fill the tank.
