This can be simply solved by first converting all terms into quarts 7gal=28qt+ 2qt= 30qt and 3gal=12qt+ 3qt=15 qt, next simply subtract the 2 ammounts and you are left with 15qt or 3gal 3qt. *** HINT*** 1 gallon = 4 quarts
Since there are 4 quarts per gallon,
7 gal 2 quarts = 30 Qt
3 gal 1 qt = 13 qt
therefore: 30+13
=
43 Qt
43 Qt = 10 gal with 3 remaining qts.
or, 7+3 gal=10, and 2+1qt=3
10 gal 3 qts.
4 quarts per imperial gallon
therefore
3 gallons plus 7 quarts = 4 gallons 3 quarts
10gal
17 gal 2 qt
3gal 2qts
2 gal 10 qt
no. 2 gal = 8 qt. 1 gal is equivalent to 4 qt.
14 gal 2 qt
1 qt = 1 gal 2 qt = 2 gal
4:1 1:3 ---- 2:2 ----
2½ gall
1 gallon = 4 quarts → 1 gal 1 qt - 3 qt = (4 qt + 1 qt) - 3 qt = 2 qt 2 qt = 2 ÷ 4 gal = 1/2 gal.
11 gal and 1 qt
check your answer
21 qt - 11 qt = 10 qt10 qt/4 qt= 2 gal 2 qtFirst convert the amounts into quarts. There are 4 quarts in every gallon. So, for the first amount: (5 x 4) + 1 = 21 qt. For the second amount: (2 x 4) + 3 = 11 qt. Then substitute these values for the ones you were originally going to subtract.So, since 5 gal 1 qt = 21 qt and 2 gas 3 qt = 11 qt, you'll have 21 qt - 11 qt, which equals 10 qt. You can then convert these 10 quarts to gallons. 10gal/4qt = 2 remainder 2; so: 2gal 2qt
