To find the number of gallons of water needed to fill the bucket, we can set up a proportion using the given information.
Let's assume that x represents the number of gallons needed to fill the bucket completely.
According to the given information, 2/9 gallon of water fills the bucket 3/5 full. So, our proportion becomes:
(2/9) gallon / (3/5) full = x gallons / 1 full
Simplifying the left side of the proportion, we have:
(2/9) / (3/5) = x / 1
To divide fractions, we can multiply the numerator by the reciprocal of the denominator. So, multiplying the left side, we get:
(2/9) * (5/3) = x / 1
Now, multiply the numerators and denominators:
(2 * 5) / (9 * 3) = x / 1
Simplifying further, we have:
10/27 = x
So, x = 10/27 gallon
Therefore, approximately 0.37 gallons of water are needed to fill the bucket completely.
2/9/(3/5) = X/1
X = 2/9 * 5/3 = 10/27 gal.
