25 gallons of gas were pumped into two different size tanks. Express the amount of gas pumped into the smaller tank in terms of the amount g pumped into the larger tank

The expression of amount of gas is

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

25 gallons of gas were pumped into two different size tanks.

Now, to express the amount of gas pumped into the smaller tank in terms of the amount pumped into the larger tank.

Let the amount of gas pumped into smaller tank be

And according to question, the amount of gas pumped into larger tank is .

Total amount of gas pumped into both size tanks = 25 gallons.

So, to express the amount of gas pumped into the smaller tank in terms of the amount pumped into the larger tank:

Subtracting both sides by we get:

Therefore, the expression of amount of gas is

2/3
