Given:
53 gal 1 qt + 12 gal 3 qt + 82 gal 1 qt
To find:
The sum of the given expression.
Solution:
Let us first add gallons:
53 gal + 12 gal + 82 gal = 147 gal
Now, add quarts.
1 qt + 3 qt + 1 qt = 5 qt
We know that,
4 quarts = 1 gallon
So add 1 gallon to 147 gal.
147 gal + 5 qt = 147 gal + 4 qt + 1 qt
= 147 gal + 1 gal + 1 qt
= 148 gal + 1 qt
= 148 gal 1 qt
Therefore, 53 gal 1 qt + 12 gal 3 qt + 82 gal 1 qt = 148 gal 1 qt
