A bucket containing 2 2/5 gallons of water is 4/7 full. How many gallons of water is in one fully filled bucket?
4 1/5
2 1/5
4 4/5
2 2/5
Correct Answer : A
we are asked to find the number of gallons a full tank can hold. A full tank is equivalent to 1.
Convert the mixed fraction into proper fraction as follows
(2frac{2}{5}=frac{left(2ast5 ight)+2}{5}=frac{10+2}{5}=frac{12}{5})
If we let x be the number of gallons in full tank, and setting up the proportion equation with the number of gallons on the numerator and fraction of tank on denominator as follows.
(frac{x gallons}{1 full tank}=frac{frac{12}{5} gallons}{frac{4}{7}full tank})
Cross-multiply to find the value of x.
(frac{x }{1 full tank}=frac{frac{12}{5} gallons}{frac{4}{7}full tank})
(x astfrac{4}{7}full tank=frac{12}{5} gallonsast1 full tank)
(x =frac{frac{12}{5} gallonsast1 full tank}{frac{4}{7}full tank}=frac{12}{5}divfrac{4}{7} gallons=frac{12}{5}astfrac{7}{4}gallons=frac{21}{5}gallons)
Converting 21/5 to a mixed fraction is 4 1/5. Thus, when the tank is full, it holds 4 1/5 gallons of water.

The number of cups of milk to make a bigger batch, we proceed as follows:
First convert the mixed number 1 2/5 as

Then, we let the unknown number of cups of milk to be x and we set a proportion equation with number cups of floor as numerator and cups of milk as denominator

Find the value of x by cross-products



2 as a fraction is 2/1 which is then used to find the product of the numerator as follows.

Per means division. The above equation becomes

When dividing fractions, we multiply the first fraction with the reciprocal of the second. The reciprocal of 2/9 is 9/2. Thus

The numbers of cups of milk required is 63/5, which when converted to mixed fraction becomes 12 3/5.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
We are asked to find the number of cups of flour that will be used to make 90 cookies.
First, we convert 2 ¼ into improper fraction as:

Letting x to be the number of cups of flour, we set up a proportion equation with number of cookies on numerator and number of cups of flour on the denominator becomes:

Solve the value of x by cross-products

Dividing both sides by 60, the above equation result to

Thus, the number of cups of flour needed to make 90 cookies is 81/16 cups, which is equal to 5 1/16 cups.

we are asked to find the number of gallons a full tank can hold. A full tank is equivalent to 1.
Convert the mixed fraction into proper fraction as follows
(2frac{2}{5}=frac{left(2ast5 ight)+2}{5}=frac{10+2}{5}=frac{12}{5})
If we let x be the number of gallons in full tank, and setting up the proportion equation with the number of gallons on the numerator and fraction of tank on denominator as follows.
(frac{x gallons}{1 full tank}=frac{frac{12}{5} gallons}{frac{4}{7}full tank})
Cross-multiply to find the value of x.
(frac{x }{1 full tank}=frac{frac{12}{5} gallons}{frac{4}{7}full tank})
(x astfrac{4}{7}full tank=frac{12}{5} gallonsast1 full tank)

Converting 21/5 to a mixed fraction is 4 1/5. Thus, when the tank is full, it holds 4 1/5 gallons of water.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
We follow the order of operations to solve the given expression. The order of operations is PEMDAS:
- Parentheses
- Exponents
- Multiplication and Division (in order from left to right)
- Addition and Subtraction (in order from left to right)
First, we start with the numerator and solve it as follows
[3(6+5*4)]
We start with multiplication in parenthesis, 5*4=20. The expression becomes
[3(6+20)]
Then, we conduct the addition in parenthesis 6+20=26. Then, the expression becomes
[3(26)]=3*26=78
Now, we solve for denominator, which is 26/2=13.
Thus, the expression is reduced into

The expression reduces into 6.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
To convert millilitres (mL) to litres (L), we use the fact that:
1 L=1000 mL
