Answer:
4 gal 2 pt
Explanation:
first, you have to convert 7 gal to pts.
you need to know that there are 8 pts in 1 gal.
8 x 7
= 56
then you have to add the remaining pt.
+ 1
= 57
next, you have to convert 2 gal to pint.
8 x 2
= 16 pt
now add the 7 remaining pts.
+ 7
= 23
your problem now looks like this:
57 pt. - 23 pt. = 34 pt.
now, you have to convert pts back into gal.
34/8 = 4 gal 2 pt.
your answer is 4 gal and 2 pt
