To solve the question:
“7 liters is the same as how many gallons?”<\/strong>
Given: 1 liter \u2248 0.26 gallons<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step-by-Step Solution:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To convert 7 liters to gallons using the given conversion factor:7\u2009liters\u00d70.26\u2009gallonsliter=1.82\u2009gallons7 \\, \\text{liters} \\times 0.26 \\, \\frac{\\text{gallons}}{\\text{liter}} = 1.82 \\, \\text{gallons}7liters\u00d70.26litergallons\u200b=1.82gallons<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, round 1.82<\/strong> to the nearest tenth<\/strong>:1.82\u22481.81.82 \\approx 1.81.82\u22481.8<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udcd8 Explanation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This problem involves a simple unit conversion<\/strong> from liters (L) to gallons (gal). Unit conversions are important in real-life contexts like cooking, fuel measurements, and scientific calculations. The key to solving such problems is understanding the conversion factor<\/strong>, which is a ratio that shows the relationship between two units of measurement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this case, we are told that 1 liter is approximately equal to 0.26 gallons<\/strong>. This means that for every liter of liquid, there are about 0.26 gallons. So, if we have 7 liters<\/strong>, we multiply 7 by 0.26 to find out how many gallons this is. The multiplication looks like this:7\u00d70.26=1.827 \\times 0.26 = 1.827\u00d70.26=1.82<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The result, 1.82, tells us that 7 liters is about 1.82 gallons. However, the question specifically asks us to round the answer to the nearest tenth<\/strong>. To round a number to the nearest tenth, we look at the digit in the hundredths place<\/strong> (the second digit after the decimal point). If it\u2019s 5 or more, we round up. If it\u2019s 4 or less, we round down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1.82, the hundredths digit is 2, which is less than 5. So we round down<\/strong>, and 1.82 becomes 1.8<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This conversion process shows how essential basic math skills are for interpreting measurements across different systems, like the metric system (liters) and the U.S. customary system (gallons).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
