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

The problem asks us to convert 3143\\frac{1}{4}341\u200b gallons into quarts using the provided double number line. First, let\u2019s understand the relationship between gallons and quarts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 gallon = 4 quarts<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This means each tick mark for gallons corresponds to 4 quarts on the quarts line. The number line is labeled incrementally for gallons and quarts, showing fractional gallons and their equivalent in quarts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the top number line<\/strong>, gallons are marked in quarters:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • 0,14,12,34,1,54,32,\u20260, \\frac{1}{4}, \\frac{1}{2}, \\frac{3}{4}, 1, \\frac{5}{4}, \\frac{3}{2}, \\ldots0,41\u200b,21\u200b,43\u200b,1,45\u200b,23\u200b,\u2026<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    On the bottom number line<\/strong>, quarts are marked at intervals of 2:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • 0,2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,\u20260, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, \\ldots0,2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,\u2026<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      To solve the problem, we find where 3143\\frac{1}{4}341\u200b<\/strong> gallons is located on the top number line, then trace directly downward to the matching point on the quarts line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • 3143\\frac{1}{4}341\u200b gallons is one tick past 3 gallons<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • At 3 gallons, the quarts line reads 12 quarts<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Each quarter gallon is 1 quart (since 1 gallon = 4 quarts, 14\\frac{1}{4}41\u200b gallon = 1 quart).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • So, 3143\\frac{1}{4}341\u200b gallons = 12+1=1312 + 1 = 1312+1=13 quarts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        The box in the image mistakenly shows 2625<\/strong>, which is incorrect. That appears to be a typographical or input error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Final Conversion:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        314 gallons=13 quarts3\\frac{1}{4} \\text{ gallons} = 13 \\text{ quarts}341\u200b gallons=13 quarts<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        This solution demonstrates how to use proportional reasoning and visual aids like double number lines to perform unit conversions accurately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
