shay used a bucket to fill her pool a bucket holds 3/4 gallon of water. Ashley needs 15 full buckets of water to fill her pool. How many gallons of water does Shay need to her pool?
One bucket holds \(\frac{3}{4}\) gallons of water. So fifteen buckets would hold \(11 \frac{1}{4}\) gallons of water. \(15\) × \(\frac{3}{4}\) = \(11 \frac{1}{4}\) gallons of water. The answer is 11 1/4.
