Question

Jason poured 1 gallon 1 quart of water into an empty 2-gallon bucket. How much more water can be added to reach the bucket's 2-gallon capacity?

Answer 1

Answer: 3 quart

Explanation:

Given

Jason poured 1 gallon 1 quart of water into an empty 2 gallon bucket

1 gallon can be written as 4 quart

So, 2 gallon can be written as 8 quart

Subtract 1 gallon 1 quart(5 quart) from 2 gallon(8 quart) to get the volume added

`\Rightarrow 8-5\\\Rightarrow 3\ \text{quart}`

So, 3 quart of water must be added to reach 2 gallon capacity.
