Question

A gas station had two pumps. Pump A dispensed 241,752 gallons. Pump B dispensed 113,916 more gallons than Pump A. About how many gallons did both pumps dispense?

Answer 1

Total gallons= 597,420

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Pump A dispensed 241,752 gallons.

Pump B dispensed 113,916 more gallons than Pump A.

First, we will calculate the number of gallons dispensed by Pump B:

Pump B= Pumb A + 113,916

Pump B= 241,752 + 113,916

Pump B= 355,668 gallons

Now, in total:

Total gallons= 241,752 + 355,668

Total gallons= 597,420
