What's the question?

James left a bin outside in his garden to collect rainwater. He notices that 1 over 4 gallon of water fills 2 over 3 of the bin. Write and solve an equation to find the amount of water that will fill the entire bin. Show your work. Explain your answer in words.

Okay, so what you have to do is find how much would fill (1/3) of the tank So you take (1/4) and divide it by 2, which will give you (1/8) We know that there are 3 parts to the whole so we need to multiply (1/8) by 3 which gives us (3/8).

The equation would be ((1/4)/2)*3
