Hayden had 2 1/2 gallons of water in his watering can. The seed packet said to use 14 of a gallon for peppers and 5/8 of a gallon for tomatoes. Hayden then used some of the water for lettuce. If Hayden had 3/4 gallons of water left over, about how much water did he use for lettuce?

A. 0 gallon
B. 1/2 gallon
C. 1 gallon
D. 1 1/2 gallon

Answer 1

the answer should be B, 1/2 gallons.

Answer 2

Answer: So what I would do first is add 14 and 58 together, then subtract it from 212 to get 140.

Then subtract 34 gallons from 140 gallons, to get 106. So I think it’s 106, Sorry if I’m wrong...
