Answer:

1. 130/6

2. 65/3

3. 260/12

Explanation:

The first thing is to calculate the weight of 10 quarts of milk, like this:

(13 pounds / 6 quarts) * 10 quarts = 130/6 pounds

The three fractions could be:

1. 130/6 pounds weigh 10 quarts of milk.

2. 65/3 pounds weigh 10 quarts of milk.

3. 260/12 pounds weigh 10 quarts of milk.
