Question

A large water tank holds 210 liters of water. About how many gallons of water does the same tank hold, if there are approximately 15 liters in 4 gallons?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Set up a proportion

15 Liters / 4 gallons = 210 Liters / x Cross Multiply

15x = 4 * 210 Combine the right

15x = 840 Divide by 15

x = 840 / 15

x = 56 gallons
