Kick is family drank a total of 42.5 gallons of milk in Jan and Feb. her family drank 5.3 gallons more milk in Feb than Jan. How many gallons of milk did kilos family drink in February?

To find out how many gallons of milk Kilo's family drank in February, let's first set up an equation based on the given information.

Let's assume the amount of milk Kilo's family drank in January is represented by 'x' gallons.

From the given information, we know that Kilo's family drank 5.3 gallons more milk in February than January. So, the amount of milk they drank in February can be represented by 'x + 5.3' gallons.

We also know that the total amount of milk Kilo's family drank in January and February together is 42.5 gallons.

Therefore, the equation becomes:
x + (x + 5.3) = 42.5

Now, let's solve this equation to find the value of 'x' (the amount of milk Kilo's family drank in January).

Combining like terms:
2x + 5.3 = 42.5

Subtracting 5.3 from both sides:
2x = 37.2

Dividing both sides by 2:
x = 18.6

So, Kilo's family drank 18.6 gallons of milk in January.

To find out how many gallons of milk they drank in February, we can substitute the value of 'x' back into our equation:
x + 5.3 = 18.6 + 5.3 = 23.9

Therefore, Kilo's family drank 23.9 gallons of milk in February.

42.5 + 5.3 = ?

2236

Jan + Feb + 5.3 = 42.5

x+x+5.3 = 42.5
2x+5.3=42.5
2x=42.5-5.3
2x=37.2
x=37.2/2
x=18.6
Jan = 18.6
Feb = 18.6+5.3 = 23.90
18.6+23.9*42.5
