Answer:

Gallons of punch used = 4.94 gallons

Explanation:

Given that:

Liters of punch purchased = 25 liters

Liters of punch left over = 6 liters

Liters of punch used = 25 - 6 = 19 liters

According to the given statement;

1 liter = 0.26 gallons

19 liters = 0.26*19 gallons

19 liters = 4.94 gallons

Hence,

Gallons of punch used = 4.94 gallons
