Han used 1 1/2 gallons of paint to paint 3/5 of a shed. How many gallons of paint will it take to paint the whole shed? Write a multiplication equation or a division equation to represent this situation then find the answer. Show your reasoning

2 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

If Han used 1 1/2 gallons of paint to paint 3/5 of a shed, this can be expressed as;

1 1/2 gallons = 3/5 of the shed

3/2gallons = 3/5 of the shed

To find the number of gallons that will paint the whole shed, we will say;

x gallons = 1 shed

Divide both expressions

3/2/x = 3/5

3/2x = 3/4

2x * 3 = 3*4

6x = 12

x = 12/6

x = 2

Hence 2 gallons will be needed for the whole shed

1. is 4 and 2. is 3

step-by-step explanation:

so if you look at the first one you see that 1 is to 4 and 2 is to 8 and so on, so you can see for every 1 there is a times 4 so if it were 3 then it would be 3*4 and it is 12

for number 2 it is 3 because 1 is to 3 and 2 is to 6 so for every 1 there is 3 so if it were 3 then there would be 3*3 = 9
