Question

A dialysis unit requires 70000 mL of distilled water. How many gallons of water are needed? (1 gal = 4 qt)

Answer 1

Answer: 19.25 gallons

Explanation: 1 ml = 0.0011 quart

Given:  4 quarts = 1 gallon

Thus if 1 ml is equal to 0.0011 quart

70000 ml  is equal to =$\frac{0.0011}{1}\times 70000=77quart$

Now if 4 quarts is equal to 1 gallon.

77 quarts is is equal to=$\frac{1}{4}\times 77=19.25gallons$

Answer 2

75000mL (1 liter/1000 mL)(1 gallon/3.785 liters)  

= [75000*1*1] / [1000*3.785] gallons  = 19.815 gallons
