Question

Henry combines 7.49 litters of red paint with 6.26 litters of red paint and pours it in to 4 container with 0.43 litters of paint left how many paint is in each container

Answer 1

To find the answer we start by adding the contents of both containers together
7.49 + 6.26 = 13.75
Since we know that there is leftover paint we are going to subtract the leftovers from the total of combined paint
13.75 - 0.43 = 13.32
The combined paint is poured into 4 containers so we divide our combined total minus the leftovers by 4
13.32/4 = 3.33
Answer: There are 3.33 liters of paint in each container
