Answer:

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to divide 3/10 gallons by 1 gallon, which is equal to 4 quarts.

First, let's convert the fraction 3/10 to a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator: 3 / 10 = 0.3

Then, we can divide 0.3 gallons by 1 gallon to get the equivalent number of gallons in quarts: 0.3 gallons / 1 gallon = 0.75 quarts

Since 1 quart is equal to 0.25 gallons, 0.75 quarts is equivalent to 3/4 of a gallon.

Finally, we can add the number of quarts given in the problem (11 quarts) to the number of quarts equivalent to the number of gallons (3/4 of a gallon, or 3 quarts). This gives us a total of 14 quarts, which is equivalent to 3 and 1/2 gallons.

Therefore, the final answer is 3 gallons and 11 quarts.
