Question

Edgar has a bird bath that holds 2 gallons of water. He only want to fill it 3/4 full. How much water in gallons should Edgar put in the bird bath?

Answer 1

In order to solve this problem, we need to multiply the total gallons the bath can hold with the amount he wants it full.

2 × 3/4 = 6/4 = 1 1/2

Edgar should put 1 1/2 gallons of water in the bath.

Hope this helps!
