The instructions on a bottle of laundry detergent tell you to add two capfuls of detergent to each gallon of water. One capful of detergent is equal to about one tablespoon.

if your washing machine holds 11 gallons of water, how many tablespoons of detergent will you need to add? How many fluid ounces of detergent?

A. You will need to add 22 tablespoons of detergent to a washing machine that holds 11 gallons of water

B. You will need to add 11 fluid ounces of detergent to a washing machine that holds 11 gallons of water

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review all the information provided to answer the question:

2 capfuls of detergent to 1 gallon of water

1 capful of detergent = 1 tablespoon

2. If your washing machine holds 11 gallons of water, how many tablespoons of detergent will you need to add? How many fluid ounces of detergent?

For finding the amount of capfuls for 11 gallons of water, we multiply this way:

11 * 2 = 22 capfuls of detergent

Now, we can calculate the number of tablespoons, this way:

22 capfuls = 22 tablespoons

You will need to add 22 tablespoons of detergent to a washing machine that holds 11 gallons of water

Fiinally, let's calculate the amount of fluid ounces of detergent, this way:

1 tablespoon = 0.5 fluid ounces

22 tablespoons * 0.5 = 11 fluid ounces

You will need to add 11 fluid ounces of detergent to a washing machine that holds 11 gallons of water
