Gunner Houston · Answer 1

1/4=5/20

3/5=12/20

you can't pour 12 out of 5. 5-12 doesn't work.

Haley Valdez · Answer 2

1/4-3/5=5/20-12/20=-7/20

Since you can't have - 7/20 gallons in a bottle, you made a typo when you typed the question/this problem just can't be solved/this is not a real world problem.
