Question

Harriet bought 3 gal. 2qt, of a paint for her living room. She used 2 gal, 3 qt. How many paint is left over?

Answer 1

Answer:

3 qt

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's stick to one unit to facilitate things. I'm going to use quarts as the unit.

1 gal = 4 qt

Initial value = 3 gal 2 qt = 14 qt

Change = 2 gal 3 qt = 11 qt

14 qt - 11 qt = 3 qt
