Question

A total of 42 gallons of a glycol solution needs to be added to a heating water loop to ensure the water does not freeze if there is a heating equipment failure. The glycol solution comes in​ 1.75-gallon cans. How many cans will be​ needed? Your answer should be a whole number.

Answer 1

Answer:

Number of cans of glycol solution needed = 24 cans

Step-by-step explanation:

Total glycol solution needed = 42 gallons

Volume of each can of glycol solution = 1.75 gallon

How many cans will be​ needed

Number of cans of glycol solution needed = Total glycol solution needed / Volume of each can of glycol solution

= 42 / 1.75

= 24

Number of cans of glycol solution needed = 24 cans
