When it is full, a tank holds 15 gallons of water.Jordan is using a 1 pint container to fill the fish tank.How many 1 pint containers of water will Jordan need to fill the fish tank?

Respuesta :

For this case we have the following conversion of units:
 1 gallon = 8pint
 We can then apply the following rule of three:
 1 gallon --------> 8 pint
 15 gallons -----> x
 Clearing x we have:
 x = (15/1) * (8)
 x = 120 pints
 Answer:
 
Jordan will need 120 pint containers of water to fill the fish tank
