Answer 1

1.425 gallons/bottle.

Further explanation

Given:

• Yasmine bought 6 gallons of apple juice.
• After filling up 4 bottles of the same juice, she had 0.3 gallons of apple juice left.

Question:

What is the amount of apple juice in each container (or bottle)?

The Process:

Let the amount of apple juice in each bottle as X.

The two steps for obtaining X are as follows:

Step-1: the total amount of apple juice is the initial gallon amount subtracted by the remaining gallon amount.

$\boxed{ \ 6 \ gallons - 0.3 \ gallons = 5.7 \ gallons \ }$

Step-2: the total amount of apple juice divided by the number of bottles is the amount of apple juice in each bottle.

$\boxed{ \ X = 5.7 \ gallons \div 4 \ bottles = \boxed{ \ 1.425 \ gallons/bottle \ } \ }$

Let's also consider the following quick steps.

Quick steps:

$\boxed{ \ X = \frac{(6 - 0.3) \ gallons}{4 \ bottles} = \boxed{ \ 1.425 \ gallons/bottle \ } \ }$

Therefore, the amount of apple juice in each container (or bottle) is 1.425 gallons.

Answer 2

The size of each bottle that is filled by apple juice is $\boxed{\bf 1.425}$.

Further explanation:

Given:

Yasmine bought $6$ gallons of apple juice.

She filled up $4$ bottles of same size.

She had $0.3$ gallon of apple juice left.

Calculation:

Consider the size of each bottle is $x$ gallons.

Total size of each bottle is $4x$ gallons.

Total amount of apple juice used in these $4$ gallons can be obtained by subtracting total amount of apple juice to remaining apple juice.

$\boxed{6-0.3=5.7}$

Therefore, total size of the $4$ bottles is $5.7\text{ gallon}$.

Write the equation for the total size of the bottles.

$\boxed{4x=5.7}$  

Now find the value of $x$ which gives the size of the bottles.

$\begin{aligned}4x&=5.7\\x&=\dfrac{5.7}{4}\\x&=1.425\end{aligned}$  

Therefore, the size of each bottle that is filled by apple juice is $\boxed{\bf 1.425}$.

Simple method:

First find the total size of bottle and then divide by $4$.

The total size of each bottle can be obtained as follows:

$6-0.3=5.7$  

The size of each bottle can be obtained as follows:

$\dfrac{5.7}{4}=1.425$  

The size of each bottle that is filled by apple juice is $\boxed{\bf 1.425}$.
