3/4 of a tank =3/4(13) gal

=39/4 almost 10 gal

4/5 * 12 = 48/5 = 9 3/5 gals

To find out how much gas is still in the tank, you can multiply the total capacity of the tank by the fraction of the tank that is still full.

Step 1: Calculate the amount of gas in the tank that is still full.
12 gallons * (4/5) = 48/5 gallons

Step 2: Simplify the fraction, if needed.
48/5 gallons = 9 3/5 gallons

Therefore, there are 9 3/5 gallons of gas still in the tank.

To determine how much gas is still in the tank, you need to find 4/5 of the total capacity of 12 gallons.

To calculate this, simply multiply 4/5 by 12:

(4/5) * 12 = (4 * 12) / 5 = 48 / 5 = 9.6 gallons

Therefore, there are 9.6 gallons of gas still in the tank.
