Lou has a container that holds 8 quarts 4 cups of water.     

Bradley has a container thatbhold s twice as many gallons as the container.     

Both containers are 2/3 full with water.     

How many more gallons of water are in Bradley's container than Lou's?     

 

Lou    –>     8 quarts & 4 cups  =    9 qts     –>     2/3 x   9 qts  =    6 qts     

Brad  –>   16 quarts & 8 cups  =  18 qts     –>     2/3 x 18 qts  =  12 qts     

 

Brad has 6 more quarts.  At 4 qts per gallon, he has 1 1/2  gallon more.
