During the rainstorm last week, Dwight and his sister wanted to see how much rain they could collect. In order to do this, they put out 12 three-and-a-half liter containers. Each of these containers was filled four times during the storm. How much rain was collected in all?

168 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given , we are informed that they put out 12 three-and-a-half liter containers and that each of these containers was filled four times during the storm.

The amount of rain that was collected in all goes thus:

Since each container was filled 4 times, the amount filled by each container will be:

= 3 1/2 liters × 4

= 14 liters

Therefore, the total amount for the 12 containers will be:

= 12 × 14 liters

= 168 liters

false

step-by-step explanation:

4y - 6 + 4y^2 - 9

before simplifying this contains 4 terms

after simplifying

4y -15 + 4y^2

it contains 3 terms
