Sagot :
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables:
a: total amount of galores:
b: total amount of containers
r: gallon rate per container
We have then:
[tex] r = \frac{a}{b}
[/tex]
Substituting values we have:
[tex]r = \frac{40.8}{8}[/tex]
[tex] r=5.1 [/tex]
Answer:
Each container has 5.1 gallons of paint
