An aquarium can hold 48 gallons of water. If the aquarium is filled with containers holding 12 quarts of water each, how many containers will it take to fill the aquarium with water?

16 containers

Step-by-step explanation:

First and foremost, we should note that:

4 quarts = 1 gallon

48 gallons = 48 × 4 = 192 quarts

Since the container holds 12 quarts of water each, the number of containers needed to fill the aquarium with water will be:

= 192 quarts / 12 quarts

= 16 containers
