Answer: 3/16 gallons of water

Step-by-step explanation:

With any fraction, if you multiply it by its reciprocal, it equals 1.  (ex: 3/4*4/3=1, 1/2*2/1=1, 71/256*256/71=1)  Thus, 2/3*3/2=1.  Because 2/3 of the bin=1/8 gallon, simply multiply both sides of the equation by 3/2 and you will get that 1 bin of water=0.1875 gallons of water, or 3/16 gallons of water.

Hope it helps <3

$70.00 at 5% for 2 years
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

$7

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there

to solve this kind of problem we use the formula:

<h3>\frac{p * t * r}{100} </h3><h3>if we solve it :</h3>

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 5%/100 = 0.05 per year,

then, solving our equation

I = 70 × 0.05 × 2 = 7

I = $ 7.00

The simple interest accumulated

on a principal of $ 70.00

at a rate of 5% per year

for 2 years is $ 7.00.
