Question

Yasmine bought 6 gallons of apple juice. After filling up 4 bottles of the same size with apple juice, she had 0.3 gallon of apple juice left. How many gallons of apple juice are in each container

Answer 1

1.425 gallons of apple juice are in one container

I got this because if she starts with 6 gallons and she’s left with 0.3 gallons, you would need to subtract 6 by 0.3 (6-0.3=5.7). So now you know how much is in 4 bottles. Now you need divide 5.7 by 4 to find out how much is in each container (which is 1.425).
