Answer:

Explanation:

To convert the amount of water in gallons to liters, we need to first convert the number of gallons to quarts and then convert the number of quarts to liters.We know that 1 gallon is equal to 4 quarts, so 4.7 gallons is equal to 4.7 gallons * 4 quarts/gallon = 4.7*4=18.8 quarts.We also know that 1 liter is equal to 1.057 quarts, so to convert the number of quarts to liters, we can divide the number of quarts by 1.057 quarts/liter: 18.8 quarts / 1.057 quarts/liter = 18.8/1.057=17.8 liters.Therefore, 4.7 gallons is equal to 17.8 liters.
