Answer 1

1 liter would water 6/7 of the garden plus 1/6 of a liter to water all off the garden. 1 1/6 liters.

Answer:

$1 \frac{1}{6}\ liters$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Using a proportion

$\frac{(1/3)}{(2/7)}=\frac{x}{(7/7)} \\ \\x=(1/3)*(7/2)\\ \\x=\frac{7}{6}\ liters\\ \\x=1 \frac{1}{6}\ liters$
