Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: The purpose of scientific notation is to make the numbers and quantities used easier to comprehend, to read and to write.

Express both numbers with the same power of ten.

Hello!

Assuming that we are using U.S. terms, there are sixteen cups in a gallon.

We can assume that there are six cups per tenth of the cooler. Our first job is to multiply 6 times 10 to get the amount of cups of sports drink.

6 · 10 = 60.

Now we need to find out how many gallons of sports drinks there are. To find how many cups go into a gallon, we divided 60 by 16.

60 ÷ 16 = 3.75

So, for our final answer,

Jaylen made 3.75 gallons of sports drink. (3 \frac{3}{4})

You would convert 17 1/4 to 17 4/16, and change 7/8 to 14/16. Then you would add those 2 numbers together to get 17 18/16 or simplified, 18 1/8.
