To find the missing value for 6 gallons in fluid ounces, we can use the conversion factor from the provided chart.

From the conversion chart:

  • 2 gallons = 256 fluid ounces
  • To find the fluid ounces per gallon, we divide 256 by 2:

\[ \text{Fluid Ounces per Gallon} = \frac{256}{2} = 128 \text{ fluid ounces per gallon} \]

Now, to find out how many fluid ounces are in 6 gallons, we can multiply the fluid ounces per gallon by 6:

\[ 6 \text{ gallons} \times 128 \text{ fluid ounces per gallon} = 768 \text{ fluid ounces} \]

So, the missing value for 6 gallons in fluid ounces is 768.
