Question

A gardener uses 1/3 of a liter of water to water 2/7 of a garden.

Answer 1

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf 1\dfrac{1}{6}\ liters \ of \ water}$

Explanation:

Let the total water required water the entire ground be g

Equation:

$\sf \dfrac{2}{7}\:g = \dfrac{1}{3} \ liters \ of \ water$

rearranging

$\sf g = \dfrac{7(1)}{3(2)}$

simplify

$\sf g = \dfrac{7}{6} \ liters \ of \ water$

rewrite in mixed fraction

$\bf g = 1\dfrac{1}{6}\ liters \ of \ water$

The water required to water the entire ground is  1 1/6 liters.
