Question

How many FULL cases of oil can you get from a 150-gallon oil tank?

Answer 1

Given

The job is to fill the quart size of bottles, from a full 150 gallon oil tank.

And, the oil is packed into 24 quart's of oil.

To find the number of full cases of oil.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

The total amount of oil is 150 gallon.

The number of cases it has to be filled is, 24.

Then, the number of the full cases of oil is,

`\begin{gathered} Number\text{ of full cases of oil}=(150)/(24) \\ =(50)/(8) \\ =(25)/(4) \\ =(24)/(4)+(1)/(4) \\ =6+(1)/(4) \\ =6(1)/(4) \end{gathered}`

Hence, the number of full cases of oil is 6.
