Answer 1

To find the number of gallons of perfume in each container, we need to divide the total amount of perfume (10.5 gallons) by the number of containers (3.5 x 10^2).

10.5 gallons / (3.5 x 10^2) containers = 3 x 10^-2 gallons

Therefore, there will be 3 x 10^-2 gallons of perfume in each container.
