Respuesta :

The amount of gas left is 3.25 gallons

How to determine the amount of gas left?

The given parameters are:

Total gallons of gas =  5 gallons

Tractor = 1 gallon

Lawnmower = 3 quarts

The amount of gas left is calculated as:

Amount left = Total gallons of gas - Tractor - Lawnmower

Substitute the known values in the above equation

Amount Left = 5 gallons - 1 gallon - 3 quarts

Convert quarts to gallons

Amount Left = 5 gallons - 1 gallon - 3 * 0.25 gallons

So, we have:

Amount Left = 5 gallons - 1 gallon - 0.75 gallons

Evaluate the difference

Amount Left = 3.25 gallons

Hence, the amount of gas left is 3.25 gallons
