Answer:

1 bin holds 3/8 gallons of water.

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4 of a gallon=2/3 of a bin.

x gallon=1 bin

We want to find the value of "x" in this situation.

To make 2/3 equal 1, we have to multiply by 3/2, which uses the inverse property. Since we used the inverse property on the bin, we then have to multiply the gallon, 1/4, by 3/2 because we multiplied the bin by 3/2. 1/4 times 3/2 is 3/8 and 2/3 times 3/2 is 6/6 or 1. so now 3/8 gall=1 bin.  

Therefore, one bin holds 3/8 gallon water.

(2/3)x=1/4
x= 3/8

x is the amount of water to fill the whole bin
when 2/3 of the bin is full, you have 1/4
so (2/3) of x is 1/4. then i just solved

hope that helped!

If I turned 9 on November 9th, 2015, exactly how old am I now? (Oct 16th, 2021)
inysia [295]

The answer to this is quite simple my friend.

So if you were 9, purely turning on November 9th of 2015 at a undisclosed time, you would've been born in November of 2006. Currently, now of October 16, 2021, you would be:

Add:

4 + 10 + 1 = 15

So you would be 15 years old.

Hope this helps, currently it's 10/17/2021 for me and 1:56 am (EST).

Have a nice morning, night, dusk etc.

stepladder [879]

53.24-34.99=18.25

$1 will buy 20 minutes of long distance calling

x$18.25 = 365 minutes @ $34.99

$132-$34.99=$97.01

20x97=1,940 minutes

minimum=365 minutes

maximum=1,940 minutes

Hope this helps.
