From the information provided, the dipping vat holds 52 gallons of liquid. Of this total content, 3/4 is made up of medicated flea solution.

The quantity of solution in the dipping vat therefore is;


\begin{gathered} \text{Total content}=52\text{ gallons} \\ \text{Solution}=(3)/(4)\text{ of content} \\ \text{Therefore, } \\ \text{Solution}=(3)/(4)*52 \\ \text{Solution}=(3*52)/(4) \\ \text{Solution}=39\text{ gallons} \end{gathered}
