Answer:

12 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Total gallons of the family's drinking water needs = gallons consumed by children + gallons consumed by adults

3\frac{1}{2} + 1\frac{3}{4} =

Converting to decimals

3.5 + 1.75 = 5.25 = 5\frac{1}{4}

If there are 63 gallons, the water supply would last for :

63 / 5.25 =12 days
