Answer:

Amount in liters is 47.9 liters

Explanation:

The Question is incomplete, it does not provide the measurements or options to choose from, but we can estimate the answer

Step one:

Given data

Taryn Bought 12.6gallons of gasoline

1 gallon of gasoline is 3.8 liters

We want to convert from gallons to liters

Step two:

----if 1 gallon has 3.8 liters

then 12.6 gallons will have x liters

cross multiply we have

x= 12.6*3.8

x=47.88 liters

Hence the estimated amount in liters is 47.9 liters
