Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
The larger is
7-6 = 1 unit bigger than the smaller....and this unit = 24 gallons
each unit is 24 gallons
larger barrel holds 24 * 7 = 168 gal
smaller barrel holds 24 * 6 = 144 gal
Answer:
Small barrel=144 large barrel=168
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio is 6 to 7 so lets assign x as a factor.
6x=Small barrel (S)
7x=Large barrel (L)
7x-6x=x
x is the difference so x is 24
x=24
6*24=144=S
7*24=168=L
