The container that holds the water for the football team is 1/2  full. After pouring in 9  gallons of water, it is 5/6   full. How many gallons can the container hold?

anonymous · Answer

Ok you make the fractions common denominators and that is 3/6 and 5/6

anonymous · Answer

Then u subtract 5/6 from 3/6 and get 2/6 so 9 gallons fill 2/6 of the container

anonymous · Answer

So that makes the container hold 27 gallons of water

anonymous · Answer

Since 9 gallons is 2/6 of the container try getting the full container which is 2/6*3 which make a whole container and and multipl 9*3 as well and get 27 gallons
