In a 3.4 gallon tank, how much product is needed to achieve a 15% spray solution?

• A. 0.4
• B. 0.5
• C. 0.6
• D. 0.2

Answer: (B)

To get a 15% solution in a 3.4-gallon tank, the amount of product you need is 15% of the total volume. Multiply 3.4 by 0.15: 3.4 × 0.15 = 0.51 gallons. That means you need about 0.51 gallons of product. Among the given options, 0.5 gallons is the closest practical match, since 0.51 rounds to about 0.5. The other amounts are either too low (0.4, 0.2) or too high (0.6) for achieving exactly 15%.
