The container that holds the water for the football team is 1/6 full. after pouring in 14 gallons of water, it is 3/4 full. how many gallons can the container hold?

We solve the equation (1/6)x + 14 = (3/4)x, where x is the number of gallons;

We have 2x/12 + 168/12 = 9x/12;

2x + 168 = 9x;

168 = 7x;

x = 168 ÷ 7;

x = 24 gallons;

total amount to be paid = $19.5

step-by-step explanation:

given ,

original price = $25.99

discount = 25%

discount amount = 25% of original price

discount amount = 25/100   * 25.99

discount amount = $6.49

hence , the total amount to be paid = original price - discount amount

                                                            = $25.99 - $6.49

                                                            =$19.5

total amount to be paid = $19.5
