Answer:6000


Step-by-step explanation:3 quarters is equal to 9/12. And 1/3 is equal to 4/12

If it is 9/12 full and 2500 gallons are drained then there are 4/3 left

9/12 - 4/3 is equal to 5/12.

Thta means 2500 gallons is 5/12 of the whole container

5/12 divided by 5 is 1/12

And 2500 divided by 5 is 500

That means every 1/12 of the container can fill 500 gallons

Do then 500 times 12 is 6000



Sorry I am really bad at explaining

ser-zykov [4K]
If you would like to know how many cups of flour are needed to make 6 servings, you can calculate this using the following steps:
