Eight gallons were poured into a gas tank that was 1/4 full. Now the tank is 3/4 full. How many gallons does a full tank hold?
3/4 - 1/4 = 2/4
8 gallons = 2/4
2/4 = 1/2
8 gallons = 1/2
Multiply by 2:
8 * 2 = 2/2 = 16 gallons = 1 full tank
3/4 - 1/4 = 2/4
8 gallons = 2/4
2/4 = 1/2
8 gallons = 1/2
Multiply by 2:
8 * 2 = 2/2 = 16 gallons = 1 full tank
