1 bucket contains 3 3/4 gallons of water


\large{|\underline{\mathtt{\red{T}\blue{o}\orange{\:}\pink{F}\blue{i}\purple{n}\green{d}\red{↯}\blue{}\orange{}}}}

Total amount of water after adding 5 gallons to it =?

  • Here, To find the total amount of water in the bucket after ariana added 5 gallons to it. We need to add 5 to the given amount of water present in the bucket...


\sf \: 3 (3)/(4) + 5


\sf \: (15)/(4) + 5


\sf \: (15)/(4) + 5


\sf \: 5(15)/(4)


\sf \: (35)/(4)

Therefore, She will have 35/4 gallons of water in all...~

Total:-


\\ \tt\hookrightarrow 3(3)/(4)+5


\\ \tt\hookrightarrow (15)/(4)+5


\\ \tt\hookrightarrow (15+20)/(4)


\\ \tt\hookrightarrow 35/4


\\ \tt\hookrightarrow 8(3)/(4)gallons
