Answer:

a. 3 gallons = 11,355 millilitres b.1 quart = 946.25 millilitres

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we will follow the steps below;

a) How many millilitres are in 3 gallons.

Using proportion;

Let x be the number of 3 gallons in millilitres

3,785 millilitres = 1 gallon

x = 3 gallons

Cross-multiply

x = 3 × 3785

x =11,355 millilitres

There are 11,355 millilitres in 3 gallons

3 gallons = 11,355 millilitres

2) How many millilitres are in 1 quart

Using proportion;

Let x be the number of millilitres in 1 quart

3785 millilitres = 4 quarts

x = 1 quart

cross -multiply

4x = 3785

Divide both-side of the equation by 4

4x/4 = 3785/4

x =946.25 millilitres

Therefore 1 quart = 946.25 millilitres

Answer:

The answer for:

a. 11355 milliliters.

b. 946.25 milliliters.

Explanation:

Given:

One gallon=
3785(ml) milliliters.

Four quarts=
1gallon.

Now, for 3 gallons multiply by 3
3785 ml*3=\\11355ml.

And then, for 1 quart :

(
4 quarts= 1 gallon, 1 quarts= (1)/(4) gallon).

Divide by 4,
3785*(1)/(4)=946.25 ml.

Therefore, the answer for:

a. 11355 milliliters.

b. 946.25 milliliters.
