Step 1: Find how many gallons are in 5300 liters
There is 1400 gallons in 5300 liters.
Step 2: Find how many drums will hold 1400 gallons
1400÷60=23.333
Because there is a little over 23 we have to round up to 24.
Step 3: State your answer
There are 24 drums needed to hold 5300 liters.

Hope this helps(:
