Question

If 5/3 liters of water is enough to water ⅕ of your yard, 5 3 how much water is needed to water the entire yard?

Answer 1

8 1/3 liters

Explanation:

create a proportion from water : yard

let 'y' = water for entire yard

5/3 ÷ 1/5 = y ÷ 5/5

5/3 · 5/1 = y/1

25/3 = y/1

3y = 25

y = 8 1/3
