Sara left a bin outside in her garden to collect rainwater. She notices that 1 over 8 gallon of water fills 2 over 3 of the bin. Write and solve an equation to find the amount of water that will fill the entire bin. Show your work. Explain your answer in words.

So, One-eighth gallon of water will fill two-thirds of the bin. We want the sentence: "x gallons of water will fill three-thirds of the bin." What we do is multiply two-thirds by its reciprocal (three-halves) and make sure we do it on both sides. $\frac{ 1 }{ 8 }=\frac{ 2 }{ 3 }x$ $\frac{ 3 }{ 2 }*\frac{ 1 }{ 8}=x$ $\frac{ 3 }{ 16 }gal.=x$ So your equation would look like this: $\frac{ 1 }{ 8 } * \frac{ 3 }{ 2}gal.water=x$
