Question

Mary has to pick up Molly from daycare. She has ¼ of a tank of gas. A quarter of a tank is equal to 5 gallons. How many gallons does her tank hold?

Answer 1

20 gallons

Explanation:

1/4 and a quarter are the same things because they are both the decimal .25 so you would multiply 5 by 4 because 4 quarters equals 4/4 or in your case a full tank so the answer would be Mary's tank can hold 20 gallons of gas.

So her tank will hold 20 gallons of gas
