Question

A landscaper buys 1 gallon of plant fertilizer. He uses 1/5 of the fertilizer, and then divides the rest into 3 smaller bottles. How much does he put in each bottle?

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{4}{15}$ of a gallon per bottle

Step-by-step explanation:

1 - $\frac{1}{5}$ = $\frac{4}{5}$

$\frac{4}{5}$ / 3 = $\frac{4}{5}$ x $\frac{1}{3}$ = $\frac{4}{15}$
