Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The container that holds the water for the football team is 1/3 full.
After pouring in 12 gallons of water, it is 7/9 full.
Hence, the fraction of the water poured is
1/3 - 7/9
Lowest common denominator
= 9
3× 3 - 7 × 1/9
= 9 - 7/9
= 2/9
Hence, 2/9 = 12 gallons
How many gallons can the container hold?
