2 answers:
I'm not sure but 35 gallons
Answer:
29 1/6 OR 29.1666..
Step-by-step explanation:
70/2=35
35 = 1/2
35/2=17.5
This means that 1/4 = 17.5.
17.5x3, (35 + 17.5) =52.5.
3/4 = 52.5
3/4 - 1/3
Multiply diagonally
3x3=9
1x4=4
9-4=5
5/?
Multiply denominators
4x3=12
3/4-1/3=5/12
5/12 x Full Tank (70/1)
Frankly I'd rather skip showing you how to multiply fractions so lets just skip that (I'll explain it if you ask)
175/6
Break it down
6x29=174
180-174=1
29 1/6
