4*124 = 496
11*45 = 495

Fill the 124-gallon jug 4 times, emptying it each time into the 45-gallon jug. After the 45-gallon jug has been filled 11 times, there will be 1 gallon remaining in the 124-gallon jug.

_____
Mathematically, this works fine. In practice, you're looking for a 1-gallon difference after handling 495 gallons of water. That's about 0.2% of the total amount of water transferred. Any error along the way will substantially affect the outcome.

Pour 4  times of 124-gallon into a big jug.
Amount of water = 124 x 4 = 496 gallons

Then use the 45-gallon jug to scoop out the water 11 times.
Amount of water scooped out = 11 x 45 = 455 gallons

Water remaining = 496 - 450 = 1 gallon.

What single transformation was applied to triangle A to get triangle B? Links will be reported​
Alina [70]

Answer:

Rotation:

Step-by-step explanation:

Translation is usually movements like up, down, left, right.

Dilation is when one shape is bigger/smaller than the other, but still congruent.

Reflections are usually done over an axis (x or y), and don't change the degree at which a shape is turned. From looking at the triangles, you can see that one triangle was turned clockwise.
