Juan added 3/5 gallon of gasoline into his car’s empty fuel tank on Sunday. He uses 1/5 gallon of gasoline on Monday to go to work. He uses 2/5 gallon of gasoline on Tuesday during a short trip. Is his fuel tank empty after he drives on Tuesday? Explain.

Juan tank is empty because if he added 3/5 of gasoline to fill up his tank, and used 1/5 of it one Monday, that would equal 2/5.On Tuesday he uses 2/5 of the gasoline such equals zero. Hope this helped :)
