Answer:

1/12

Explanation:

Use KCF (Keep, change, flip)

1. Keep 1/4 like it was

2. Change the division sign into multiply sign.

3. When it saids a whole number, like 3,5,6,7, the fraction will be 7/1. but for this case 3/1. We'll change that into 1/3

1/4 x 1/3 = 1/12

Answer:

1/12 of a gallon

Explanation:

To find how much paint is in each container we need to divide 1/4 by 3
