To determine how many gallons a container holding 34,065 milliliters is equivalent to, you can use the conversion factor that 1 gallon equals approximately 3,785 milliliters.

You can set up the equation as follows:

\[ \text{gallons} = \frac{\text{milliliters}}{\text{milliliters per gallon}} \]

Substituting the values in:

\[ \text{gallons} = \frac{34,065 \text{ milliliters}}{3,785 \text{ milliliters/gallon}} \]

Now perform the division:

\[ \text{gallons} \approx \frac{34,065}{3,785} \approx 9 \]

Thus, the container holds approximately 9 gallons.

The correct response is 9.
