Hello!

The answer is: A. 4.5 L

Why?

According to the conversion factor which states that:


1gal=3.78L

It means that we have 3.78 L per each gallon or it's equal to say that we 0.26 gallon per each L.The SI unit for liquid volume is the Liter (L)

Let's make the calculations:


1.2 gal*(3,78L)/(1gal) =4,54 L

So, we have 4.54 L in 1,2 gallons.

Have a nice day!
