Each container has a capacity of one – third gallon.B. Each container has a capacity of 2 gallons.C. Each container has a capacity of 1 gallon.

Respuesta :

B. Each container has a capacity of 2 gallons

This is just based on proportions.

We are told that 6 thermo flasks with each flask being ⅓ full.

  • Now, if she has a total of 4 gallons of hot water, it means the quantity of gallons per flask will be;

⅓y × 6 = 4

Where y is the capacity of gallons per flask.

  • Thus, simplifying that gives;

2y = 4

y = 4/2

y = 2 gallons

Thus, each flask has a capacity of 2 gallons.
