Respuesta :
the amount of water she used to water her flowers was 4 1/4 .
she has used 1/4 of this water to water her daisies.
therefore 1/4 of the water she used was to water daisies.
then its 1/4 of 4 1/4.
if we write 4 1/4 as an improper fraction , 4 wholes equal to 16/4 + 1/4 = 17/4. then we have to find 1/4 of 17/4 which is [tex] \frac{1*17}{4*4} = \frac{17}{16} [/tex].
then we can mulitply the denominators by denominators and numerators by numerators. then answer is 17/16.
If we divide 17 by 16 we get 1.0625
she used 1.0625 gallons of water to water daisies

Answer:
1.0625 gallons of water was used by her.
Step-by-step explanation:
Mrs McDonald used [tex]4\frac{1}{4}[/tex] gallons of water to water her flowers.
She used [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] of the water on her flowers daisies.
We have to calculate the gallons of water used by her to water daisies.
Let Mrs McDonald used G gallons of water to water the flowers daisies.
Then one fourth of [tex]4\frac{1}{4}[/tex] = G
[tex]G=(\frac{1}{4}).(\frac{17}{4})[/tex]
[tex]G=\frac{17}{16}=1.0625 gallons[/tex]
Therefore 1.0625 gallons of water she used on the daisies.
