We can first convert 9.5 into fraction :
9.5= 9 1/2
Then we can use deduction to find out the answer:
9 1/2 - 6 1/3
=19/2 - 19/3
We change it to the same denominator:
=19×3/6 - 19×2/6
= 57/6 - 38/6
= 19/6
Therefore there are 19/6 or 3 1/6 gallons left in the tank.
Hope it helps!
So I think you should set up an equation like this: 14.95x+16.88y=131.18 , x+y=8
so x=8-y, plug this into the original equation:
14.95(8-y)+16.88y=131.18
Evaluate: 119.60-14.95y+16.88y=131.18
Combine like terms: 119.60+1.93y=131.18
Subtract 119.60 from both sides. You get: 1.93y=11.58
Divide both sides by 1.93. You get y=6
Plug into second equation: x+y=8 ---> x+6=8 and solve for x. x=2
