Gemlia filled a bucket with 5 2/3 gallons of the water. later, she poured out 2 4/9 gallons of the water. how much water is left in the bucket?

The water in the bucket = gallons.

Gemlia poured out water from the bucket = gallons

First we will have to convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction.

=

To find the left over water we have to subtract poured out water from total amount of water.

So we will get,

To subtract them first we have to make the denominatior same. As 9 is multiple of 3, so we can make the common denominator as 3.

To make the denominator of the first fraction as 3, we know that 3 times 3 is 9, So we will multiply the numerator and denominator of the first fraction by 3.

Now as the denominator is same , we will subtract the numerator.

So we have got there is gallons of water left in the bucket.

We will convert that improper fraction to mixed fraction now.

So the required answer is gallons of water left over in the bucket.
