Answer:

Convert to decimals:

1.5 and 0.75

Then, set up a proportion

1.5/0.75=x/1

proportion x/y=x/y

since the 3/4 and 1 are the same topic ( the room) we put them together.

Solve: 1.5/0.75=x

x=2

So 2 gallons

Hope this helps plz hit the crown :D

2/3x + 1/6 = -3/4 x + 1
Marta_Voda [28]
Multiply all terms by 12/1 to get rid of fractions.
8x+2= -9x+12

Add 9x to both sides
17x+2=12

Subtract 2 from both sides
17x=10

Divide both sides by 17
x=10/17

Final answer: x=10/17
