I'm assuming the pail holds 6 3/4 (not 634) gallons of water.
1 gallon= 16 cups
Multiply total gallons by cups per 1 gallon.
= 6 3/4 cups * 16 cups/gallon
convert mixed number to improper fraction
= 27/4 * 16
multiply numerators
= (27*16)/4
multiply in parentheses
= 432/4
= 108 cups
ANSWER: There are 108 cups
Hope this helps! :)
One way to solve this is to look at the size of the poster, and then subtract the size of the picture so you have the area that needs to be painted left.
Area of square poster - 3x × 3x = 9x^2
Area of painting - 2x × 2x = 4x^2
9x^2 - 4x^2 = 5x^2
The area is 5x^2
